Question

Solve10/7- x = 0.1/0.01

Answer 1

x = - 60/7 = 8.57

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial expression is:

`(10)/(7)-x=(0.1)/(0.01)`

Now, we can solve the expression of the right side of the equation:

`(10)/(7)-x=10`

Then, add x to both sides of the equation:

`\begin{gathered} (10)/(7)-x+x=10+x \\ (10)/(7)=10+x \end{gathered}`

Finally, subtract 10 from both sides:

`\begin{gathered} (10)/(7)-10=10+x-10 \\ (10)/(7)-10=x \\ (10)/(7)-(10)/(1)=x \\ -(60)/(7)=x \\ -8.57=x \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the answer is x = -8.57
