How do I solve for x

Mathematics
2 answers:
Crazy boy [7]3 years ago
8 0
SOLUTION:

5a / x = 5b / x - 1

( 5a ) ( x - 1 ) = ( x ) ( 5b )

5ax - 5a = 5bx

5ax - 5bx = 5a

5x ( a - b ) = 5a

5x = 5a / ( a - b )

x = 5a / ( a - b ) ÷ 5

x = 5a / 5 ( a - b )

x = a / ( a - b )

Hope this helps! :)

The best way too solve it is to cross multiply. When you get the answer tell me and I’ll check it

What is the simplified form of the equation 4/5n - 3/5 = 1/5n?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

n = 1 if you meant "(4/5)n - (3/5) = (1/5)n"

Step-by-step explanation:                                                                              

There's some ambiguity here.  Did you mean (4/5)n or did you

              4

mean --------- ?  Please use parentheses to eliminate this ambiguity.

              5n    

I'm going to assume that you meant to type in (4/5)n - (3/5) = (1/5)n.

Then we have (3/5)n = 3/5, or n = 1

The proportionality constant (y to x) is
NeTakaya

Answer:

the constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other. Once you know the constant of proportionality you can find an equation representing the directly proportional relationship between x and y, namely y=kx, with your specific k.

Answers need to be fractions, if they are not whole numbers. No decimals
klemol [59]

The Slope of lines parallel to line is 1/2 and the Slope of lines perpendicular  to line is -2.

<h3>What is the equation of a straight line ?</h3>

An equation that can be written in the form of y = mx+c

where m is the slope of the line

and c is the intercept on y axis

The equation given in the question is

y=1/2x−7

in this the slope = 1/2

Intercept = -7

For parallel Lines

For a parallel line , the slope of the line is same

and is given by  m = 1/2

For a perpendicular line

Slope will be equal to

-1/m

here -1/m = -2

Therefore the slope for perpendicular line is -2.
