5=1/2x - 3 please help me out

Mathematics
1 answer:
liq [111]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

5 = 1/2(x) - 3

Add 3 to both sides.

8 = 1/2(x)

Rewrite for clarity.

1/2(x) = 8

x/2 = 8

Multiply both sides by 2.

x = 16.

Proof:

5 = 1/2(x) - 3

Substitute variable.

5 = 1/2(16) - 3

Multiply 1/2 and 16.

5 = 8 - 3

Subtract 3 from 8.

5 = 5

What is eight thirds equivilent to
STatiana [176]
Eight thirds (also known as 8/3) is equivalent to two and two thirds (numerically written: 2 2/3). Explanation: to solve this, find out god many times 3 can fit into eight. Three can fit into eight 2 times (since 3*2 is 6), which leaves you with 2 left. Since this remainder of 2 can not be divided by 3, it is put into a fraction of 2/3. Therefore, the answer is 2 2/3.
