Question

5/6x + 7 = 17 (step by step pls)

Answer 1

`\boxed {x = 12}`

Explanation:

Solve for the value of
`x`:

`(5)/(6)x + 7 = 17`

-Subtract both sides by
`7`:

`(5)/(6)x + 7 - 7 = 17 - 7`

`(5)/(6)x = 10`

-Multiply both sides by
`(6)/(5)`, which is the reciprocal of
`(5)/(6)`:

`x = 10 * ((6)/(5))`

`x = (10 * 6)/(5)`

`x = (60)/(5)`

-Divide
`60` by
`5`:

`x = (60)/(5)`

`\boxed {x = 12}`

Therefore, the value of
`x` is
`12`.

Answer 2

5/6x + 7 = 17

Subtract 7 from both sides:

5/6x = 10

Divide both sides by 5/6:

X = 10/ 5/6

When dividing a number by a fraction flip

The fraction over and multiply:

X = 10 x 6/5

Simplify

X = (10x6)/5

X = 60/5

X = 12

The answer is x = 12
