STatiana [176]

Answer:

5 127/200 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

4 1/2 = 4 5/10 | 4/5 = 8/10

--------------------------------------

4 5/10 = 4.5 | 8/10 = 0.8

5.635 = 5 635/1000

635/1000 divided by 5 = 127/200

--------------------------------------

5 + 127/200 = 5 127/200

2x-5/5 +x-2=3(x+5). Find the value of x?

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2x - 5}{5} + x - 2 = 3(x + 5)$

$\frac{2x - 5}{5} + x - 2 = 3x + 15$

$\frac{2x - 5}{5} = 2x + 17$

$2x - 5 = 10x + 85$

$-8x = 90$

$x = \frac{-45}{4}$
