Solve the following proportion problem for x: 14/3x=20/x-5
Butoxors [25]

14        20

----  =  -----  cross multiply

3x       x-5


14(x-5) = 3x (20)

14x - 70 = 60x

-14x          -14x

-70 = 36x

/36    /36

-70/36  = x

or

-35/18 = x

Solve for : x 4(x+5)=3(x-2)-2(x+2)
Allushta [10]

Hey there!!

In order to solve this equation, we will have to use the distributive property.

What is distributive property?

We will need to distribute one term to the other terms preset.

Example : 4 ( 3x - 1 )

sing distributive property, we will have to distribute the term outside the parenthesis to the terms inside. In this case, we will have to distribute 4 to 3x and -1

( 4 × 3x ) + ( 4 × -1 )

12x + ( -4 )

= 12x - 4

This is after implementing the distributive property.

Now moving back onto the question

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

Let us first solve 4 ( x + 5 )

Distribute 4 to x and 5

( 4 × x ) + ( 4 × 5 )

4x + 20

Now let's solve 3 ( x - 2 )

Distribute 3 to x and -2

( 3 × x ) + ( 3 × - 2 )

3x - 6

Solve for -2 ( x + 2 )

Distribute -2 to x and 2

( -2 × x ) + ( -2 × 2 )

-2x - 4

Now, let's get everything back together

4x + 20 = 3x - 6 - 2x - 4

Combine all the like terms

4x + 20 = x - 10

Adding 10 on both sides

4x + 20 + 10 = x - 10 + 10

4x + 30 = x

Subtracting 4x on both sides

4x - 4x + 30 = x - 4x

30 = -3x

Dividing by -3 on both sides

30 / -3 = -3x / -3

- 10 = x

<h2>x = - 10 </h2><h3>Hope my answer helps!</h3>
