Answer:

The value x in equation
(x-2)/(2)=(x+1)/(5) is 4

Therefore x=4

Explanation:

Given that equation is
(x-2)/(2)=(x+1)/(5)

To simplify the given equation :


(x-2)/(2)=(x+1)/(5)

Multiply the above equation by 10 on both sides


(x-2)/(2)* 10=(x+1)/(5)* 10


5(x-2)=2(x+1)


5(x)+5(-2)=2(x)+2(1)


5x-10=2x+2


5x-10-(2x+2)=2x+2-(2x+2)


5x-10-2x-2=2x-2-2x+2


3x-12=0


3x-12+12=0+12


3x=12


x=(12)/(3)

Therefore x=4

The value x in equation
(x-2)/(2)=(x+1)/(5) is 4
