What is the answer 5x-3 =1/5x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Oxana [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 5/8 for 5x - 3 = (1/5)x

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, we want to isolate our 3 from our x-values. You can add three to both sides of the equation and get it to the other side and then subtract 1/5x from 5x.

(5x - 3) + 3 = ((1/5)x) + 3

5x = (1/5)x + 3

5x = (25/5)x

((25/5)x) - (1/5)x = ((1/5)x + 3) - (1/5)x

(24/5)x = 3

From here, you would want to solve for x. This would mean multiplying 3 by 5 and dividing your product by 24.

5*3 = 15

15/24 = 5/8 = x

Hope this helps!

How do I find this missing measurement?

The area of a parallelogram is equal to the base times the height.

In terms of algebra
A = b*h

We know the base is b = 8.2,the area is A = 65.6, though we don't know the height h. We can use algebra to solve

A = b*h
65.6 = 8.2*h
8.2*h = 65.6
8.2*h/8.2 = 65.6/8.2 <--- divide both sides by 8.2
h = 8

The height of the parallelogram is 8 inches
