Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first write an equation where the unknown number is represented with variable x. <em>The sum of a fifth of x and two is five:</em>

\frac{1}{5} x+2=5

Great! Let's solve for x by isolating the variable.

\frac{1}{5}x=3\\x=15

<u>Therefore, the unknown number is 15.</u>

<u />

<em>I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)</em>

Compare the values of the underlined digits?
amm1812
The value of 7 in 26,475 is ten times greater than the value of 7 in 503,497.

This is because the first 7 is in the tens place and the second seven is in the ones place. Everytime you move to the next "place" you are basically making the number ten times smaller or greater.

Lin solved the equation
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: x=1/2

she was wrong, it's supposed to be

Step-by-step explanation: 8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8(x−3)+7=2x(4−17)

(8)(x)+(8)(−3)+7=2x(4−17)(Distribute)

8x+−24+7=−26x

(8x)+(−24+7)=−26x(Combine Like Terms)

8x+−17=−26x

8x−17=−26x

Step 2: Add 26x to both sides.

8x−17+26x=−26x+26x

34x−17=0

Step 3: Add 17 to both sides.

34x−17+17=0+17

34x=17

Step 4: Divide both sides by 34.

34x/34=17/34 x=1/2
