Solve for x: 1 1/5x−2 1/3<1/7x+1 1/2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mashcka [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: x

Step-by-step explanation:

1\frac{1}{5}x-2\frac{1}{3}

Add 2\frac{1}{3} on both sides and subtract \frac{1}{7}x on both sides to leave x's on the left side and independent values on the right.

(2\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{7}x) +1\frac{1}{5}x-2\frac{1}{3}

1\frac{1}{5}x-\frac{1}{7}x

Solve the fractions.

1(\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{7})x

1(\frac{(1)(7)-(5)(1)}{(5)(7)} )x

1(\frac{7-5}{35} )x

1(\frac{2}{35} )x

1\frac{2}{35}x

Convert the mixed fraction 1\frac{2}{35} to an improper fraction. You can do this by multiplying 1 times 35 and adding 2.

\frac{37}{35}x

Now use the reciprocal (inverse fraction) and multiply on both sides to isolate x.

(\frac{35}{37}) (\frac{37}{35})x

x

x

x

Property of equality used to solve subtractior<br> equations
Margarita [4]
Two equations that have the same solution are called equivalent equations e.g. 5 +3 = 2 + 6. And this as we learned in a previous section is shown by the equality sign =. An inverse operation are two operations that undo each other e.g. addition and subtraction or multiplication and division. You can perform the same inverse operation on each side of an equivalent equation without changing the equality
