Question

x is equal to 4 upon 5 bracket X + 10 bracket close

Answer 1

x=4/5(x+10)
5x=4x+40
5x -4x=40
x=40

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: equation $x=\frac{4}{5}(x+10)$

We have to solve for x.

Consider the given equation $x=\frac{4}{5}(x+10)$

Multiply both side by 5, we have,

$5x=4(x+10)$

Now divide both side by 4, we have,

$\frac{5x}{4}=x+10$

Subtract x both side, we have,

$\frac{5x}{4}-x=10$

Taking LCM, we have,

$\frac{5x-4x}{4}=10$

Simplify for x, we have,

$\frac{x}{4}=10$

Multiply both side by 4, we have,

x = 40
