Question

Solve: 3/2x + 1/5 = 3/10

Answer 1

The equation is

\[\large \frac{3}{2}x + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{3}{10}\]

right?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

multiply both sides by the LCD 10 to get

\[\large \frac{3}{2}x + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{3}{10}\]

\[\large 10\left(\frac{3}{2}x + \frac{1}{5}\right) = 10\left(\frac{3}{10}\right)\]

\[\large 10\left(\frac{3}{2}x\right) + 10\left(\frac{1}{5}\right) = 10\left(\frac{3}{10}\right)\]

\[\large \frac{10}{1}\left(\frac{3}{2}x\right) + \frac{10}{1}\left(\frac{1}{5}\right) = \frac{10}{1}\left(\frac{3}{10}\right)\]

\[\large \frac{10*3}{1*2}x + \frac{10*1}{1*5} = \frac{10*3}{1*10}\]

\[\large \frac{30}{2}x + \frac{10}{5} = \frac{30}{10}\]

\[\large 15x + 2 = 3\]

I'll let you take over
