\[\frac{ 2}{ 5 } x + 2 = 10\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you solving for x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea solve for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, -2 on both sides, so it would be 2/5=8 flip 2/5 and multiply it on both sides and it will cancel out with its flipped self and become x=5*8/2 which is x=40/2 which is x=20 thats your answer :D understand?

OpenStudy (nurali):

2/5x+2=10 2/5x=8 x=8*5/2 x=40/2 x=20
