Question

12=7/2(5x + 2)

Solve for x in simplest form

Answer 1

12=7/2(5x+2)

We move all terms to the left:

12-(7/2(5x+2))=0

Domain of the equation: 2(5x+2))!=0

x∈R

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

-(7+12*2(5x+2))=0

We calculate terms in parentheses: -(7+12*2(5x+2)), so:

7+12*2(5x+2)

determiningTheFunctionDomain

12*2(5x+2)+7

Wy multiply elements

24x(5+7

Back to the equation:

-(24x(5+7)

Answer 2

x = 2/7

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

12= 7/2

(5x+2)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

12= 7/2

(5x+2)

12=(7/2)(5x)+(7/2)(2)(Distribute)

12= 35/2

x+7

Step 2: Flip the equation.

35/2

x+7=12

Step 3: Subtract 7 from both sides.

35/2

x+7−7=12−7

35/2

x=5

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 2/35.

(2/35)*(35/2x) = (2/35)*(5)

x = 2/7
