Answer:
x = 3 and x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
2(5x - 3) = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )
5x - 3 = 12 ( add 3 to both sides )
5x = 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 3
(b)
5(2x + 1) = 50 ( divide both sides by 5 )
2x + 1 = 10 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
2x = 9 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x =
Answer:
His age is 7 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Rehman's present age be x years.
1 / (x - 3) + 1 /(x + 5) = 1/3
Multiply through by the LCD 3(x - 3)(x + 5):
3(x + 5) + 3(x - 3) = (x + 5)(x - 3)
3x + 15 + 3x - 9 = x^2 + 2x - 15
x^2 + 2x - 6x - 30 + 9 = 0
x^2 - 4x - 21 = 0
(x - 7)(x + 3) = 0
x = 7 (answer).
