\left(x+5\right)\times 5+\left(5-x\right)\times 5=10x_{5}
Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.
5x+25+\left(5-x\right)\times 5=10x_{5}
Use the distributive property to multiply x+5 by 5.
5x+25+25-5x=10x_{5}
Use the distributive property to multiply 5-x by 5.
5x+50-5x=10x_{5}
Add 25 and 25 to get 50.
50=10x_{5}
Combine 5x and -5x to get 0.
10x_{5}=50
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
x_{5}=\frac{50}{10}
Divide both sides by 10.
