Question

Solve and check the following : x+1/5 = 2+3(x-1)/10

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

x+1/5=2+3x-3/10

10x+10=10+15x-15

10x-15x=-10-10-15

-5x=-15x

x=-15/-5=3

Therefore x=3

Verification

x+1/5=2+3(x-1)/10 (substituting the values)

3+1/5=2+3(3-1)/10

4/5=2+9-3/10

4/5=8/10

4/5=4/5

Therefore LHS=RHS
