Question

1/3x+3=13 what is the answer for x

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure if the question is $\frac{1}{3}x + 3 = 13$ or $\frac{1}{3x} + 3 = 13$, so we can do both:

$\frac{1}{3}x + 3 = 13$

First, let's subtract $3$ from both sides to isolate the $x$ on the left-hand side:

$\frac{1}{3}x = 10$

Next, let's multiply both sides by $3$ to get $x$ by itself:

$x = 30$

$\frac{1}{3x} + 3 = 13$

First, let's subtract $3$ from both sides to isolate the $x$ on the left-hand side:

$\frac{1}{3x} = 10$

Next, we can take the reciprocal of both sides to get rid of the fraction on the side with $x$:

$3x = \frac{1}{10}$

Next, we can divide both sides by $3$ to get $x$ by itself:

$x = \frac{1}{30}$

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve for value of x in this expression 1/3x+3=13

solution

1/3x+3=13

collect the like terms

1/3x = 13 -3

1/3x = 10

multiply through by 3

x = 30
