Question

solve for x - 10 = x-7 / 3

Answer 1

Answer: 23/2 or 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 10 = (x - 7) / 3

3 (x - 10) = x - 7

3x - 30 = x - 7

3x - x = 30 - 7

2x = 23

x = 23/2 answer...

change it into decimal form

x = 11.5 answer...

note: 23/2 or 11.5 both could be the answers

hope that helps...

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 23/2 or 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Multiply both sides by 3.

• $3(x-10)= \frac{x-7}{3} *3$

• $3x - 30 = x - 7$  

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

• $3x-30-x=x-7-x$
• $2x-30=-7$

Step 3: Add 30 to both sides.

• $2x-30+30=-7+30$
• $2x=23$

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

• $2x/2 = 23/2$
• $x = 23/2 = 11.5$

Therefore, x = 23/2 or 11.5.
