(80+X/10)=(1/2)X

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it 0.5 * x on the right side ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YES

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if so : 80+x = 5x 80=4x x=20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but there is something you should understand .. when you write : (80+x/10) it means 80 + x/10 this is the correct way (80+x)/10 to write what you meant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

should be 200, not 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, yeah, unless you have (80+x)/10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

800+x/10=x/2 800=x/2-x/10=5x-x/10 800=4x/10 x=800*10/4=2000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2000 is definitely wrong, in either case.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just know what he means since i answered some questions of him earlier .. :)

OpenStudy (turingtest):

Capital x's look like two parentheses: X )( this is causing problems, we should all use lower case x's

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Please check it ...its correct. answer will be 2000 only

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have checked it by hand and in Mathematica, 2000 is incorrect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Or post your question correctly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is your question look like this (80+x)/10=x/2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then it will be 2o ..

OpenStudy (turingtest):

80+x=5x 4x=80 x=20 yes

OpenStudy (turingtest):

or 80+x/10=x/2 800+x=5x 4x=800 x=200
