helppp ive been stuck on this one for almost a hour What is the value of x? x/6-5=13 @amistre64 @ganeshie8 @johnweldon1993 @undeadknight26
Is it \((\dfrac{x}{6} - 5 = 13)\) or \((\dfrac{x}{6-5} = 13)\)? @igivemedalsandfollow!
it doesnt let me put tht @iGreen
I'm asking which equation is it? the first one I put or the second one I put?
oh second?
\(\dfrac{x}{6-5} = 13\) Subtract: \(\dfrac{x}{1} = 13\) \(\dfrac{x}{1} = x\) \(x = 13\)
so was i right?
Does the equation on your question look like this? \((\dfrac{x}{6} - 5 = 13)\)
yes
Or does the equation on your question look like this? \((\dfrac{x}{6-5} = 13)\)
Which one? The first or the second?
first
god see im that dumb
Okay.
\(\dfrac{x}{6} - 5 = 13\) Add 5 to both sides: \(\dfrac{x}{6} = 18\) Now you have to multiply 6 to both sides of the equation. Do you know what the answer is now?
no
@iGreen
Well if you have to multiply 6 to both sides, and 18 is on the other side, what's 6 x 18?
108
Yes, so that's your answer.
thanks could u help me with a couple more?
