Simplify -2/5x+30+3/5x+20

$- \frac{2}{5} x + 30 + \frac{3}{5} x + 20$

Step 1

Simplify each term.

Combine $x$ and $\frac{2}{5}$ .

$- \frac{x \cdot 2}{5} + 30 + \frac{3}{5} x + 20$

Move $2$ to the left of $x$ .

$- \frac{2 \cdot x}{5} + 30 + \frac{3}{5} x + 20$

Combine $\frac{3}{5}$ and $x$ .

$- \frac{2 x}{5} + 30 + \frac{3 x}{5} + 20$

Step 2

Simplify terms.

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$30 + 20 + \frac{- 2 x + 3 x}{5}$

Add $- 2 x$ and $3 x$ .

$30 + 20 + \frac{x}{5}$

Add $30$ and $20$ .

$50 + \frac{x}{5}$
