The solutions of the equations for x are given as follows:

a. x = 36.

b. x = 15.

<h3>What is the solution for item a?</h3>

The equation for item a is given by:

x/3 - 5 = 7

Isolating x, we have that:

x/3 = 12

x = 3 x 12

x = 36.

<h3>What is the solution for item b?</h3>

The equation for item b is given by:

x/2 - 5 = 2.5

Isolating x, we have that:

x/2 = 7.5

x = 7.5 x 2

x = 15.

Hence the solutions are:

a. x = 36.

b. x = 15.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

$x^a=y^b=z^c$

xyz=1

Separating equations:

$x^a=z^c$

$y^b=z^c$

Solving the first equation for x:

$\displaystyle x=z^\frac{c}{a}$

Solving the second equation for y:

$\displaystyle y=z^\frac{c}{b}$

Substituting in

xyz=1:

$\displaystyle z^\frac{c}{a}z^\frac{c}{b}z=1$

Adding the exponents:

$\displaystyle z^{\frac{c}{a}+\frac{c}{b}+1}=1$

Since $1=z^0$ :

$\displaystyle z^{\frac{c}{a}+\frac{c}{b}+1}=z^0$

The base is z on both sides so we get rid of them:

$\displaystyle \frac{c}{a}+\frac{c}{b}+1=0$

Multiplying by ab:

bc+ac+ab=0

Reordering:

ab+bc+ca=0
