Question

Help ASAP! Find x: 4−x/5 + x+2/3 =6 Thank you!

Answer 1

Answer:

x=44

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretty straightforward!

4-x/5 +x+2/3=6

3(4-x) + 5(x+2) = 90  (Multiply both sides of the equation by 15, a multiple of              both 5 and 3)

12-3x+5x+10=90 (Use Distributive property to multiply across parentheses)

-3x+5x=90-12+10 (Bring like terms together/Signs change when moved to the other side)

2x=88

x=44

Thank you for your time!
