Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 10 + 3x - 15 = 10

5x - 25 = 10

5x = 35

x = 7

7 - 5 = 2

Answer:

x-5 =7-5 =2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-5)+3(x-5)=10

2x-10+3x-15=10

-25+5x=10

+25 both sides

5x=35

x=7

7-5=2

Make g the subject of this relation

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the radical

$\frac{U}{\frac{1}{f}+\frac{1}{g} }$

= $\frac{U}{\frac{g+f}{fg} }$

= $\frac{Ufg}{g+f}$

Square both sides

T² = $\frac{Ufg}{g+f}$ ( multiply both sides by (g + f) )

T²(g + f) = Ufg ( distribute left side )

T²g + T²f = Ufg ← subtract Ufg from both sides

T²g - Ufg + T²f = 0 ← subtract T²f from both sides

T²g - Ufg = - T²f ← factor out g from each term on the left side

g(T² - Uf) = - T²f ← divide both sides by (T² - Uf)

g = - $\frac{T^2f}{T^2-Uf}$ = $\frac{T^2f}{Uf-T^2}$
