Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x - 5 = 20 ( isolate x by adding 5 to both sides )
x = 25
First way: x * 1.05
This computes directly what 105% of x will be.
Second way: x + (x * 0.05)
This takes x (which is 100%) and adds 5% of x to it.
1/2 + 4x = 5x - 5/6
1/2 = x - 5/6
3/6 = x - 5/6
x = 8/6

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression can be simplified as:
k^3(k7/5)^-5
= k^(3+-5) * (7/5)^-5
(Collecting the powers of k at one side and the constants at other side)
= k^-2 * (5/7)^5
(Solving thr integer powers)
= k^-2 * (3125/16807)
