X/1000=72/125 multiply both sides by 1000
x=72000/125
x=576
So the fraction is 576/1000
Answer:
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
opening the bracket on the LHS, we have
-8x-40= -3x+x-7-3
-8x-40= -2x-10
collecting like terms
-8x+2x= -10+40
-6x= 30
divide both sides by -6
x= -5
To solve this, you need to isolate/get the variable "m" by itself in the equation:
1. 2m - 1 = 3m Subtract 2m on both sides to get "m" on one side of the equation
2m - 2m - 1 = 3m - 2m
-1 = m
2. 2m = 1 + m Subtract m on both sides to get "m" on one side of the equation
2m - m = 1 + m - m
m = 1
3. m - 1 = 2 Add 1 on both sides to get "m" by itself
m - 1 + 1 = 2 + 1
m = 3
4. 2 + m = 3 Subtract 2 on both sides to get "m" by itself
m = 1
5. -2 + m = 1 Add 2 on both sides to get "m" by itself
m = 3
6. 3 = 1 + m Subtract 1 on both sides to get "m" by itself
2 = m
