Question

If (0.8)x + 1.25 = 2x + 0.05, , then x =​

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of $x$ is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find - Value of $x$

Solution -

For simplifying we will use BODMAS,

As per BODMAS rule,

B for Bracket

O for Of

D for Divide

M for Multiply

A for Addition

S for Subtraction

So, applying the above concept

$(0.8)x + 1.25 = 2x + 0.05$

Separate $x$ term in Right hand side we get

$1.25- 0.05 = 2x- 0.8x$

$1.20 = 1.2x\\\frac{1.2}{1.2} = x\\x = 1$

So,

The value of $x$ is 1.

Answer 2

• As per the data given in the question, we have to find the value of the expression.

            Given data:- $(0.8)x+1.25=2x+0.05.$

            To find:- Value of the expression.

            Solution:-

• Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method:

• Step 1:- we will Identify the variables and constants in the given simple equation.

• Step 2:-then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Step 3:- Transpose or shift the term on the other side to solve the equation further simplest.

• Step 4:- Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required that is mentioned in rule 1 or rule 2 of linear equations.

• Step 5:- Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation. By using the transposition method. we get,

              $\begin{array}{l}1.25-0.05=2 x-0.8 x \\1.20=1.2 x \\\frac{1.2}{1.2}=x \\x=1\end{array}$

        Hence we will get the value $x=1.$
