Solve for x:
x/5 - 10 = 30
Put each term in x/5 - 10 over the common denominator 5: x/5 - 10 = x/5 - (50)/5:
x/5 - (50)/5 = 30
x/5 - (50)/5 = (x - 50)/5:
(x - 50)/5 = 30
Multiply both sides of (x - 50)/5 = 30 by 5:
(5 (x - 50))/5 = 5×30
(5 (x - 50))/5 = 5/5×(x - 50) = x - 50:
x - 50 = 5×30
5×30 = 150:
x - 50 = 150
Add 50 to both sides:
x + (50 - 50) = 50 + 150
50 - 50 = 0:
x = 150 + 50
150 + 50 = 200:
Answer:  x = 200

\frac{1}{5} *x- \frac{2}{3} *y=30

x/5 - 2*15/3=30

x/5 - 30/3 = 30

x/5 - 10 = 30

x/5 = 40

x = 40 x 5

x = 200

Answer:

x = \frac{mn(q-p)}{n-m}

Step-by-step explanation:

collect the fractional terms on the left side of the equation and other terms on the right side

subtract \frac{x-n}{n} from both sides

\frac{x-m}{m} - \frac{x-n}{n} + p = q

subtract p from both sides

\frac{x-m}{m} - \frac{x-n}{n} = q - p

We require the fractions to have a common denominator of mn

multiply the numerator/denominator of the first fraction by n and the numerator/denominator of the second fraction by m

\frac{n(x-m)}{mn} - \frac{m(x-n)}{mn} = q - p

distribute and simplify the numerators of the fractions

\frac{nx-nm-mx+mn}{mn} = q - p

\frac{nx-mx}{mn} = q - p

factor out x from each term on the numerator

\frac{x(n-m)}{mn} = q - p

multiply both sides by mn

x(n - m) = mn(q - p)

divide both sides by (n - m)

x = \frac{mn(q-p)}{n-m} → n ≠ m

Hey!
Let p = cost of a pen 
<span>Let n = cost of a notebook </span>

<span>The info in the question leads to two equations: </span>

<span>1) 2p + 3n = 5.55 </span>
<span>2) p + 2n = 3.50 </span>

<span>Multiply equation 2) by 2 to get the new system of equations </span>

<span>1a) 2p + 3n = 5.55 </span>
<span>2a) 2p + 4n = 7.00 </span>

<span>Subtract equation 1a) from equation 2a) to get </span>

<span>n = 1.45 ...................... that's the cost of one notebook </span>

<span>~~~~~~~~ </span>
<span>To check, you could go on to figure out p, which turns out to be 0.60 . Put in those values of n and p into the original equations to verify.</span>
Hope this helps! ~Nadia~
