Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1: Since x is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation.

$7x+5-5x=12+2x-8$

STEP 2: Subtract 5x from 7x.

$2x+5=12+2x-8$

STEP 3: Subtract 8 from 12.

$2x+5=2x+4$

STEP 4: Move all terms containing x to the left side of the equation.

$5=4$

STEP 5: Since 5≠4, there are no solutions.

No solution

What percent of $5x$ is equal to $x/5$?

amm1812

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y% of 5x is equal to $\frac{x}{5}.$

$y\% \: of \: 5x = \frac{x}{5} \\ \\ \therefore \: \frac{y}{100} \times 5x = \frac{x}{5} \\ \\ \therefore \: y = \frac{x}{5 \times 5x} \times 100 \\ \\ \therefore \: y = \frac{1}{25} \times 100 \\ \\ \therefore \: y = 4 \\ \\ \therefore \: 4\% \: of \: 5x \: is \: equal \: to \: \frac{x}{5}$
