Question

What is the solution to the rational equation x over 5 plus 4 over 5 = 7 ?

Answer 1

33? i have no idea. ive done it every way possible and just dont get it

Answer 2

\[\frac{x}{5}+\frac{4}{5} = 7\]\[\frac{x}{5} = 7 - \frac{4}{5}\]
Then try multiplying both sides by 5.

Answer 3

what u mean both sides by five. like 4/5 (5) and x/5(5)

Answer 4

\[5(\frac{x}{5})=5(7-\frac{4}{5})\]

Answer 5

\[\frac{x}{5}+\frac{4}{5}=7\] multiply both sides by 5
\[x+4=35\]
subtract 4
\[x=31\]

Answer 6

31

Answer 7

thanks u for clearing that up
