ENTER ANSWER PLZZ THANKS!!

Answer 1

Hello! :)

Answer:

`\boxed{x=40}`

*The answer must have a POSITIVE sign!*

Explanation:

First, you switch sides of an equation.

`(1)/(5)x-3=5`

Then, you add by 3 from both sides of an equation.

`(1)/(5)x-3+3=5+3`

Add by the number from left/right.

`5+3=8`

`(1)/(5)x=8`

Multiply by 5 both sides.

`5*(1)/(5)x=8*5`

Multiply by the numbers.

8*5=40

x=40

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

x = 40

Explanation:

5= 1/5x -3

Add 3 to each side

5+3= 1/5x -3+3

8 = 1/5x

Multiply by 5 to isolate x

5*8 = 1/5x *5

40 =x
