Question

HELP!!! Solve each equation:

8x=23; x = ?
112=2x; x = ?
5x=27; x = ?
14x=5; x= ?
15=23x; x = ?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Isolate the variable by itself

8x=23 divide each side by 8

x=23/8 (or 2.875 as decimal)

2x=112 divide each side by 2

x=56

5x=27 divide each side by 5

x=27/5 (or 5.4 as decimal)

14x=5 divide each side by 14

x=5/14

23x=15 divide each side by 23

x=15/23
