Answer 2

Given:

The equation: x/(x+5) =7

To find:

The value of the unknown variable, x in the given equation

Solution:

The given linear equation is:

x/(x+5) =7

Or, x= 7x + 35  ( on cross multiplication)

Or, 7x-x =- 35 (on rearranging the elements on both sides)

Or, 6x= - 35

Or, x= -35/6 or -5.83

The value of x will be  -35/6 or -5.83.
