Here are the steps. I'll try to make them as easy as possible :)

2/3x+1=5

Step 1: Subtract 1 from both sides.
2/x+1-1=5-1

Step 2: Multiply both sides from 3/2

(3/2)*(2/3x)=(3/2)*(4)

And the answer will be 6
x=6

Let's solve the equation step-by-step

In the last question I've answered for you, I've said it can be a little bit easier to work out a math problem with first rewriting it. So, let's do that --

2/3x + 1 = 5

Step 1) Subtract 1 from both sides

2/3x + 1 - 1 = 5 - 1

2/3x = 4

Step 2) Multiply both sides by 3/2

(3/2) × (2/3x) = (3/2) × (4)

x = 6

FINAL ANSWER -

x = 6

In order for two lines to be perpendicular, their gradients must multiply together to get -1

7*b=-1

7b=-1

Divide both sides by 7

So, the gradient of line b is -1/7

The larger of two numbers is five more than twice the smaller number. The sum of the two numbers is 38. Find the numbers.

White raven [17]

Answer:

11 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

A good way to solve these is to work backwards.

X= larger and Y= smaller

if X is 5 more than 2Y than subtract 5 from the total

38 - 5 = 33

divide by 3

33/3 = 11

11 = Y and double that is 22 so add the five back into X and you get 16
