Answer 2

Answer: The required value of x is given by

`x=-7.`

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following equation for the value of x:

`(3)/(5)x+5=(4)/(5)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)`

In order to solve the above equation, we need to take 5 to the right-hand side of the equation and then solve for x.

The solution of equation (i) is as follows:

`(3)/(5)x+5=(4)/(5)\\\\\\\Rightarrow (3)/(5)x=(4)/(5)-5\\\\\\\Rightarrow (3)/(5)x=(4-25)/(5)\\\\\\\Rightarrow (3)/(5)x=-(21)/(5)\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=-(21* 5)/(5* 3)\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=-(21)/(3)\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=-7.`

Thus, the required value of x is given by

`x=-7.`
