what is x? 3/5x-5=7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it three-fifths of x minus five equals 7 or three divided by 5x minus 5 equals 7?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its three fifths x minus five equals 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, so you have (3/5)x - 5 =7, adding 5 to both sides of the equation we get 3x/5 = 12 multiplying my 5 on both sides we get 3x=60 dividing by 3 on both sides should give you your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer will be 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct.
