How do I solve for x

Mathematics

Crazy boy [7]2 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! :)

A, B and C can do a piece of work in 20, 30 and 60 days respectively. In how many days can A do the work if he is assisted by B
Goshia [24]

A, B and C working together will finish same piece of work in 10 days

A can do a piece of work in 20 days. That is A is doing the work at a rate of  1 / 20. Therefore

B = 1 / 30

C = 1 / 60

A, B and C working togehter their rate will be added together =

A + B + C =  1 / 20 + 1 / 30 + 1 / 60 = 1 / 10

so they can work together to finish same piece of work in 10 days
