Question

What value(s) of x satisfy the equation above?

A) 0
B) 5
C) No solution
D) Any value such that x ≠ 5

Answer 1

the answer is b, 5.

Explanation:

you don't even have to pay attention the denominators of the equation. If you plug in 5 for x in the numerators of the equation. so 8 times 8=40 + 2 times 5=10. basically do 8 times 5 + 2 times 5 it = 50. Because 8 times 5 = 40, and 2 times 5= 10. 40 + 10 =50.
