No 16% of 40 is 32/5 where 40%of 60 is 24.
Hope this helps.
The answer is no. the first equation is not right
4/3 • 5/3 = 20/9 divided by 2 = 10/9
40 + 10x = 5x - 30
To begin isolating x, subtract 40 from both sides.
40 + 10x - 40 = 5x - 30 - 40
10x = 5x - 70
Subtract 5x from both sides.
10x - 5x= 5x - 70 - 5x
5x = -70
Finally, divide both sides by 5.
5x/5 = -70/5
x = -14
Answer:
x = -14
