Question

23.5 - 3.0x = 9.5x - 11.5​

Answer 1

Answer:

$x = 2.538$

Step-by-step explanation:

• Given equation is $5-3.0x = 9.5x-11.5$
• To solve this, first collect the terms of variables at one side and constant terms at another side and then solve the equation.

• ∴ $9.5x - 3.0x = 5+ 11.5$

                ∴ $6.5x = 16.5$

                    ∴ $x = \frac{16.5}{6.5}$

                    ∴ $x = 2.538$

• ∴  The solution of this equation is $x = 2.538$
