Hi all, I'm having problems with a couple of equations. I've been trying to solve them but no matter How I approach them I alwas seem to get the same answers. I know they're wrong because I have the answer sheet. These are the two problems:
Solve for x:
5-2x/5 - 4-x/10 = 3/10 and 2x-5/12 - 3-x/6 = 11/12
the correct answers are: for the frist one is x = 1 and the second one is x = 11/12
but I got x = 17/3 for the first one and x = 11 for the second one. Can somebody please point me in the right direction what am I doing wrong. Heeelp Please.
