Question

Solve the equation for x 2/3x-1/9x + 5 = 20

Answer 1

$\bold{Answer}$

$\boxed{\bold{X \ = \ 27}}$

$\bold{Explanation}$

• $\bold{Solve: \ \frac{2}{3}x-\frac{1}{9}x+5=20}$

$\bold{--------------------------}$

• $\bold{Subtract \ 5 \ From \ Both \ Sides}$

$\bold{\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{1}{9}x+5-5=20-5}$

• $\bold{Simplify}$

$\bold{\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{1}{9}x=15}$

• $\bold{Multiply \ By \ LCM: \ LCM \ = \ 9}$

$\bold{\frac{2}{3}x\cdot \:9-\frac{1}{9}x\cdot \:9=15\cdot \:9}$

• $\bold{Simplify}$

$\bold{6x-x=135}$

$\bold{5x=135}$

• $\bold{Divide \ Both \ Sides \ By \ 5}$

$\bold{\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{135}{5}}$

• $\bold{Simplify}$

$\bold{X \ = \ 27}$

$\boxed{\bold{Eclipsed}}$
