Mathematics

Dovator [93]3 years ago

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x. Writing an equation in terms of the number, x, gives

5x=13x-16.

Adding 16 to both sides gives

5x+16=13x.

Then, subtracting 5x from both sides gives

8x=16,

and dividing by 8 on both sides simplifies to

x=2.

QUESTION: 1 1/5 = -2 2/3 x +6<br> solve for x will give brainliest answer quickly or no brainliest.
Whitepunk [10]

Answer: x=1\frac{4}{5}

<u>Simplify both sides of the equation</u>

<u></u>\frac{6}{5} =\frac{-8}{3} x+6<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Flip the equation</u>

<u></u>\frac{-8}{3} x+6=\frac{6}{5}<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Subtract 6 from both sides</u>

<u></u>\frac{-8}{3} x+6-6=\frac{6}{5} -6<u></u>

<u></u>\frac{-8}{3} x=\frac{-24}{5}<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Multiply both sides by 3/(-8)</u>

<u></u>(\frac{3}{-8} )*\frac{-8}{3} x)=(\frac{3}{-8} )*(\frac{-24}{5} )<u></u>

<u></u>x=\frac{9}{5}<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Turn 9/5 into a Mixed Number</u>

<u></u>x=\frac{9}{5} =1\frac{4}{5} \\x=1\frac{4}{5}<u></u>
