Answer:
x equals five thirteenths
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we will follow the steps below;
× x +
= 4 × x
+
= 4x
= 4x
Multiply both-side of the equation by 4
× 4= 4x × 4
On the left-hand side of the equation 4 will cancel-out 4, thus the equation becomes;
3x + 5 = 16x
subtract 3x from both-side of the equation
16x - 3x = 5
13x = 5
Divide both-side of the equation by 13
= 
(On the left-hand side of the equation 13 at the numerator will cancel-out 13 at the denominator while on the right-hand side of the equation 5 will be divided by 13)
x = 
x equals five thirteenths
26&27
Start by writing out the equation which would be: 106=2(n+n+1)
N: fist integer
N+1: is the consecutive integer
Then solve:
106=2(2n+1). Combine.
106=4n+2. Distribute.
104=4n. Move whole numbers to the left.
N=26. Divide
N+1=27 Plug in for second integer
37 would be the answer.....
