Answer:
For 2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7 - 0 5 x) , x = 1.47/1.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the given equation is : 2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7 - 0 5x)
By <u>DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY:</u>
A(B - C) = AB - AC
Solving for the value of x , we get:
2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7 - 0 5 x)
⇒ 2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7) - 5 (05 x)
⇒ 2. 5 x - 1. 75 = 35 - 25 x
or, 2. 5 x + 25 x = 35 + 1. 75
or, 27 . 5 x = 36.75
⇒ x = 36.75/ 27.5 = 7.35/ 5.5 = 1.47/1.1
or, x = 1.47/1.1
Hence, for 2.5 x - 1.75 = 5 (7 - 0 5 x) , x = 1.47/1.1
