Question

solve the equation 8/4{x-2]=1/10

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{41}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{8}{4} (x-2) = \frac{1}{10}$

$2 (x - 2) = \frac{1}{10}$

$2x - 4 = \frac{1}{10}$

$10 (2x - 4) = 1$

$20x - 40 = 1$

$20x = 41$

$x = \frac{41}{20}$

Answer 2

Answer:

41/20 or 2.05

Step-by-step explanation:

8/4 {x-2} = 1/10

8x/4 - 16/4 = 1/10

8x/4 - 4 = 1/10

8x/4 = 1/10 + 4

8x/4 = (1 + 40)/10

8x/4 = 41/10

on cross multiplying we get ,

8x × 10 = 41 × 4

80x = 164

x = 164/80

x= 41/20 or 2.05
