It may be useful to multiply the whole expression by 2, in order to get rid of denominators:
Distribute the negative sign in the left hand side:
Move all terms involving x to the left, and all constants to the right:
Sum like terms:

Given :
An online store sells only two types of bandanas: cotton bandanas and silk bandanas. Cotton bandanas cost $7 each, and silk bandanas cost $11 each.
Mrs. Tran spent a total of $93 on bandanas at this store.
To Find :
How many cotton bandanas did Mrs. Tran buy.
Solution :
Let, number of cotton and silk bandanas buys are x and y respectively.
So, 7x + 11y = 93
x = (93 - 11y)/ 7
Putting y = 1 , x = 82/7 ( not possible since x can only be positive integer )
Putting y = 4 , x = 7
Therefore, Mrs . Tran will buy 7 cotton bandanas.
Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to get the missing side
from what we have, the triangle is a right angled triangle
In this kind of triangle, the Pythagoras’ theorem works
The square of the side facing the right angle ( marked x here) is equal to the sum of the squares of the two other sides
We have this as;
x^2 = 5^2 + 12^2
x^2 = 25 + 144
x^2 = 169
x = √169
x = 13
