Question

Solve for x. 3x = 2 5 A) 1 4 B) 2 15 C) 5 6 D) 6 5

Answer 1

To solve the equation 3x = 25 for x, divide both sides by 3 to get x = 25 / 3, which simplifies to x = 8.33, not matching any of the provided options.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x you should first understand that the given equation 3x = 25 is a linear equation in one variable which can be solved by isolating x on one side of the equation. To find the value of x, divide both sides of the equation by 3, which gives us x = 25 / 3. Simplifying this we get x = 8.33, which is not listed in the provided options. Therefore, there may be a mistake in either the transcription of the problem or the given options.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:
