Answer:
x = 9/8
Explanation:
5x - ((2x - 1) ÷ 2) = 5
2 × (5x - ((2x - 1) ÷ 2) = 5
10x - (2x-1) = 10
10x - 2x + 1 = 10
8x + 1 = 10
8x + 1 - 1 = 10 - 1
8x = 10 - 1
8x = 9
8x ÷ 8 = 9 ÷ 8
x = 9 ÷ 8
x = 9/8 or 1 and 1/8
5x - ((2x-1)÷2) = 5-----(1)
(1) multiply by 2;
2 *(5x - ((2x-1)÷2) = 5)
8x + 1 =10
8x = 10-1
x=9 /8
