Question

Match the equation with its corresponding solution for x . 9-x/5=3

Answer 1

Hi there!

To solve for x, we need to simplify:

9 - x/5 = 3
-x/5 = -6
x/5 = 6
x = 30

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

x = 30 .

Explanation:

Given:
`9-(x)/(5)` = 3

To find: Solution for x .

Solution: We have given that

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

On multiplying both side by 5 .

`9 *5 -(x* 5)/(5)` = 3*5 .

45 - x =15

On subtracting both side by 45 .

45 -45 - x =15 - 45

-x = - 30

On multiplying both side by -1 .

x = 30 .

Therefore, x = 30 .
