XEquals said:Okay, the question goes like this:
5/2x -10 = 3/5x + 1/2
I got 210/38 which simplifies to 15/19.
Does anyone else get this answer or am I doing something wrong?
Does 210/38 reduce to 15/19??? If I remember correctly 210/38 means 210 divided by 38 which must be about 5 or 6 or somewhere in between. However 15 divided by 19 is less than one.
Once you determine what your answer is, plug that value into your original equation in place of x. Then do the arithmetic on each side of the equation separately and see if each side yields the same result.
