Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2.5(6x−4)=10+4(1.5+0.5x)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2.5(6x−4)=10+4(1.5+0.5x)

(2.5)(6x)+(2.5)(−4)=10+(4)(1.5)+(4)(0.5x)(Distribute)

15x+−10=10+6+2x

15x−10=(2x)+(10+6)(Combine Like Terms)

15x−10=2x+16

15x−10=2x+16

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

15x−10−2x=2x+16−2x

13x−10=16

Step 3: Add 10 to both sides.

13x−10+10=16+10

13x=26

Step 4: Divide both sides by 13.  

x=2

Solve x'=5t(sqrt(x)) x(0)=1
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

2\sqrt{x}=\frac{5t^2}{2}+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=5t\sqrt{x}\,,\, x(0)=1

Solution:

A differential equation is said to be separable if it can be written separately as  functions of two variables.

Given equation is separable.

We can write this equation as follows:

\frac{dx}{\sqrt{x}}=5t\,dt

On integrating both sides, we get

\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x}}=\int 5t\,dt

Formulae Used:

\int \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}=2\sqrt{x}\,\,,\,\,\int t\,dt=\frac{t^2}{2}

So, we get solution as 2\sqrt{x}=\frac{5t^2}{2}+C

Applying condition: x(0) = 1, we get C=2

Therefore, 2\sqrt{x}=\frac{5t^2}{2}+2
