Question

What are two different ways 23x=10 could be solved for x?

Answer 1

Answer:

3 & 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{2}{3}x = 10$

Required

Determine the number of ways to solve for x

From the list of given options, (1), (2) & (5) are incorrect, as they won't give the solution to the value of x

Option (3) is correct: See below

$\frac{2}{3}x/\frac{2}{3} = 10/\frac{2}{3}$

$\frac{2}{3}x*\frac{3}{2} = 10 * \frac{3}{2}$

$x = 10 * \frac{3}{2}$

$x = \frac{30}{2}$

$x = 15$

Option (4) is also correct: See below

$\frac{2}{3}x*\frac{3}{2} = 10 * \frac{3}{2}$

$x = 10 * \frac{3}{2}$

$x = \frac{30}{2}$

$x = 15$
