Question

1. Solve the following equations: a) 2y +5/2=37/2 b)5t + 28 = 10 AND c) 5/2x=25/4​

Answer 1

Answer:

Transposing 5/2 to R.H.S we get,

2y = 37/2 − 5/2

2y = 32/2

y = 16

(b) 5t + 28 =10

Transposing 28 to R.H.S we get,

5t = 10 − 28

5t = −18

t = −18/5

(c) a/5 + 3 = 2

Transposing 3 to R.H.S we get,

a/5 = 2 − 3

a/5 = − 1

a = - 5

(d) q/4 + 7 = 5

Transposing 7 to R.H.S we get
