Question

4. Solve for 'x' and check the answer x/3+x/5+x/15=3​

Answer 1

Answer:

The right side: 2(x-2)-3(x-3)

If we multiply the numbers with what’s in brackets we woul get:

2x-4–3x+9

Now simplify it: by adding numbers together and x(s) together:

-x+5

This outcome= the left hand side of the equ, so

-x+5=5(x-5)

Or,

-x+5=5x-25

Put the xs on oneside and numbers on the other:

5+25=5x+x

30=6x

Divide both sides by 6 to get x

30/6=6x/6

5=x

So,

X=5

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-4–3x+9 = 5x-25

First, combine like terms on the left side:

-x+5 = 6x-25

Now you have to isolate x; we’ll do it on the right side of the equation by adding x to both sides:

5 = 6x-25

Add 25 to both sides:

30 = 6x

Divide by 6:

30/6 = x

Reduce, with a GCF of 6:

5 = x

Now substitute 15/2 for x in the original equation to prove this:

2(x-2)-3(x-3)=5(x-5)

2(5–2)-3(5–3)=5(5–5)

Perform all of the subtraction, and then the multiplication:

2(3)-3(2)=5(0)

6–6=0

0=0

so x = 5
