Question

find x
in the following equation-3x÷2x=5x

Answer 1

Answer:

$- 3x \div 2x = 5 x \\ - 3x \times \frac{1}{2x} = 5x \\ -3 \times \frac{1}{2} = 5x \\ - 3 = 10x \\ - \frac{3}{10} = x$

Answer 2

Answer- The above question is from the chapter 'Linear Equation in One Variable' under the topic of 'Algebra'.

Linear Equation in one variable: Equation which contains one variable is called linear equation whose power is 1 is called linear equation in one variable.

Examples:

1. 2x + 4 = 0

2. 6y + 1 = 0

3. 3z + 2 = -4

4. 9a - 2 = 9

5. 23b + 1 = 24

The given question is related to division.

Question: Find x in the following equation- 3x ÷ 2x = 5x.

Solution: 3x ÷ 2x = 5x

3x × 1/2x = 5x

x and 1/x will cancel each other.

3/2 = 5x

3/10 = x

∴ Value of x = 3/10.
