Question

Solve for x: x + = 15

x = −3

x = −1.5

x = 0

x = 3

Answer 1

x + what?

Answer 2

x + what??

Answer 3

5 over 2x plus fifteen over 2

Answer 4

\[x+\frac{ 5 }{ 2x }=15\]

Answer 5

5/2x+15/2 = 15x = −3x = −1.5x = 0x = 3 like that?

Answer 6

yea

Answer 7

Well You Dont Need To Really Need To Actually Solve It.Since You Have Answer Options You Can Put The Value And Check And When LHS And RHS Match Thats Your Answer

Answer 8

there is no answer....

Answer 9

at least none that i can find. but im pretty sure that @hba's answer is wrong...
if you solve:
x+5/2x=15
x+5=30x
x=30x-5
x=0.16666666666666666666666666666667
unless that's an answer choice, idk...

Answer 10

\[x+5/2x+15/2=15\]

Answer 11

Btw We Dont Know What The Correct Question Is ?

Answer 12

@rhondaycole can you rewrite the question using the equation button

Answer 13

@rhondaycole \[x + \frac{ 5 }{ 2x } = 15\]Multiply by 5.\[x + \frac{ 5 }{ 2x }(5) = 15(5)\]\[x + 2x = 75\]x + 2x = 3x

SO:

3x = 75

Divide both sides by 3.

x = 25

Answer 14

@surdawi @lharrell97 this right?

Answer 15

@jazy
not sure about the equation but
you did a mistake at the beginning
x + 5/2x = 15 when multiply by 5

it will be 5x + 25/2x = 75

Answer 16

@jazy that doesn't work.

Answer 17

You would multiply the denominator to get rid of the fraction, not the numerator.

Answer 18

You would want to multiply by 2x to get it out of the denominator.

Answer 19

Oh yeah! I just realized that sorry! :/

Answer 20

\[x + \frac{ 5 }{ 2x } =15\]
\[(2x)*x + (2x)*\frac{ 5 }{ 2x } =(2x)*15\]
\[2x^{2} + 5 = 30x\]
\[2x^{2} -30 x +5 = 0\]

can you try now @jazy

Answer 21

but still we are not sure what is we got the question right
