Question

x/3-2/5÷3/4-2x=16/15 solve linear equation and verify answers.

​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

FIRST OF ALL WRITING LIKE TERMS TOGETHER

x/3 - 2x - 2/5 ÷ 3/4 = 16/15

x/3 - 2x - ( 2/5 * 4/3) = 16/15

x/3 - 2x - (8/15) = 16/15

x/3 - 2x = 16/15 - 8/15

TAKING L.C.M ON LEFT HAND SIDE

(3x - 2x )/3 = 8/15

ON CROSS MULTIPLYING ,

WE GET,

15x = 24

x= 24/15

ON FURTHER SIMPLIFICATION

WE GET

x = 8 / 5

Hope it helps
