Answer: The required value of x for which the given equation is true is 5.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of x for which the following equation is true :


(1)/(2)(4x-5)+(5)/(2)=10~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

To find the value of x, we need to solve the given equation.

The solution of equation (i) is as follows :


(1)/(2)(4x-5)+(5)/(2)=10\\\\\\\Rightarrow (4x-5+5)/(2)=10\\\\\\\Rightarrow (4x)/(2)=10\\\\\\\Rightarrow 2x=10\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=(10)/(2)\\\\\Rightarrow x=5.

Thus, the required value of x for which the given equation is true is 5.
