Answer:

23+7-2x=8x

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

23+7-2x=8x

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

-2x-8x=-23-7

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

-10x=-30

We divide both sides of the equation by -10 to get x.  

x=3

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

23 +7-2x=8x

Combine like terms

30-2x=8x

Add 2x to each side

30-2x+2x = 8x+2x

30 = 10x

Divide each side by 10

30/10 = 10x/10

3 = x

In a particular triathlon the athletes cover 1/24 of the total distance by
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

15/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "d" be the total distance, that is, the distance for swimming (s), running (r) and going by bike (b).

d = s + r + b   [1]

1/24 of the total distance is covered by  swimming.

s = 1/24 d   [2]

1/3 of the distance is covered by running.

r = 1/3 d  [3]

If we replace [2] and [3] in [1], we get

d = 1/24 d + 1/3 d + b

b = d - 1/24 d - 1/3 d

b = 24/24 d - 1/24 d - 8/24 d

b = 15/24 d = 5/8 d

The ratio of  the distance covered by bike to the distance covered by running is:

b/r = (5/8 d)/(1/3 d) = 15/8
