Solve for x: -4x=2x+5

Mathematics
2 answers:

Answer:

x= -\frac{5}{6} or 0.83

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x=2x+5

First, you subtract 2x from both sides

-4x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 5

-6x = 5

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x(The coefficient of x here is -6)

\frac{-6x}{-6} = \frac{5}{-6}

x = -\frac{5}{6}

OR

In decimal form⇒ 0.82828282...

                         ≅ 0.83

∴ x = -\frac{5}{6} or 0.83

Hope this helps!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 2x from each side

you are left with -6x=5

divide 6 on both sides

you get -.8333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

How do I solve this equation?
Gnom [1K]

2x(4-x)^{-1/2}-3(4-x)^{1/2}=(4-x)^{-1/2}\bigg(2x-3(4-x)\bigg)

We effectively rewrite the equation as

\dfrac{5x-12}{(4-x)^{1/2}}=0

In order for the LHS to be defined, we need to restrict 4-x>0, or x. Now, the LHS will vanish when the numerator is 0, which happens for

5x-12=0\implies5x=12\implies x=\dfrac{12}5

This value is indeed smaller than 4, so the solution is x=\dfrac{12}5.

Can you help to solve this and explain how thanks in advance

Hey there! :)

Answer:

5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pattern of this puzzle is to take the bottom two numbers of the triangle, find the sum, then divide by the top number. For example:

8 + 4 = 12 --> 12/3 = 4.

5 + 13 = 18 --> 18/6 = 3.

9 + 5 = 14 --> 14/2 = 7.

Therefore:

14 + 6 = 20 --> 20/4 = 5. The missing number is 5.
