Question

Solve for x in simplest form 5 =2/3(8x-6)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5 = 2/3 ( 8x - 6 )

to make it clearer, we can just interchange the position of LHS and RHS

2/3 ( 8x - 6 ) = 5

By transposing,

8x - 6 = 5 - 2/3

8x - 6 = 13/3

8x = 13/3 + 6

8x = 31 / 3

x = 31 / 3 × 1/8

x = 31 / 24

Answer 2

Answer:

27/16

Step-by-step explanation:

5=2/3(8x-6)

multiply 2/3 with 8x first then multiply 2/3 with -6

5=16/3x-4

shift 16/3x to the left hand side and bring 5 to the right hand side

-16/3x= -4+(-5)

-16/3x= -9

x= -9 divided by -16/3

x= 27/16

hope this helps :)
