cross multiply and solve the equation

Answer 5

\[4(x+10)=10(x-2)\]

4x+40=10x-20
6x=60
x=10

Answer 7

thank you :)

Answer 9

i need help on another question

csscgirl, refrain from giving away answers but guiding them through it.

Answer 12

wait can i cross multiply in this one?

Answer 13

yes

Answer 14

so it will be 8(x-1)=3(x+2)

Answer 15

correct

Answer 16

i'm getting 5x=7 so far
i'm i correct?

Answer 17

which will result in x=1.4

Answer 18

no, you will get 5x=14

Answer 19

but you divide 7/5
which results in 1.4
which is one of the options for my hw

Answer 20

from my answer i got 2.8 and it works in your equation

Answer 21

oh how did you get 14?

Answer 22

8(x-1)=3(x+2)
8x-8=3x+6
8x=3x+14
5x=14
