please give answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=15/7

Step-by-step explanation:

5-x/5+x=2/5

cross multiply

5(5-x)=2(5+x)

25-5x=10+2x

-5x-2x=10-25

-7x= -15

x= -15/-7

x=15/7

verification:

(5-15/7)/(5+15/7)=2/5

(35-15/7)/(35+15/7)=2/5

(20/7)/(50/7)=2/5

20/7×7/50=2/5

50/20=2/5

2/5=2/5

Hence verified
