Answer 10

\[\frac{ x-2 }{ 5} = \frac{ 4x+2 }{ 25 } \]
First, multiply both sides of the equation by (5)(25). By doing this, you are cancelling the denominator.
\[(5)(25)\frac{ x-2 }{ 5 }=\frac{ 4x+2 }{ 25 } (5)(25)\]
25(x-2) = 5(4x+2)

Then simplify the equation by distributing 25 into (x-2) and 5 into (4x+2).
25x-2=20x+2

Lastly, solve for x by adding 20x to both sides of the equation to cancel out 20x and -2 to both sides of the equation to cancel out -2.
5x=4

Then divide both sides by 5 to isolate x and you'll end up with x=4/5.

THANK!! YOU IF I HAD A MEDAL I WOULD GIVE IT TO YOU!

Answer 12

No problem :) Make sure you check the answer by plugging in x=4/5 into the original equation.

Answer 13

OMG HOLD ON

Answer 14

There's a little mistake you might've caught.
I'm sorry, I can't do math in my head X)
But when distributing, I forgot to distribute the outside term to every term on the inside of the parenthesis.
So you're supposed to get 25x-50=20x+10
Which gives you x=12 when you simplify.

Answer 15

I am so sorry I got that small part wrong. When I worked it out on paper and checked my answer, I realized my original answer was wrong.
Now when you check x=12 it will FOR SURE be correct.
