Question

Can someone help me.

Answer 1

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

a. x = 36.

b. x = 15.

What is the solution for item a?

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.

What is the solution for item b?

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.
