Question

What does x equal if x-10 divided by x-4 equals 50 divided by -6

Answer 1

x=65/14

Explanation:

(x-10)/(x-4)=50/-6

-50/6=-25/3

(x-10)/(x-4)=-25/3

x-10=-25/3(x-4)

x-10=-25/3x+100/3

x-(-25/3x)=100/3+10

x+25/3x=130/3

28/3x=130/3

x=(130/3)/(28/3)

x=(130/3)(3/28)

x=130/28

x=65/14
