Subtract 2 from both sides. Now you have 1/5x=15. Now multiply by 5 on both sides. The answer is x=75
Hello!
Explanation:
First, subtract by 2 from both sides of an equation.
[tex]\frac{1}{5}x+2-2=17-2[/tex]
Then, simplify.
[tex]\frac{1}{5}x=15[/tex]
Next, multiply by 5 from both sides of an equation.
[tex]5*\frac{1}{5}x=15*5[/tex]
Finally, simplify or multiply by the numbers.
[tex]15*5=75[/tex]
Answer: [tex]x=75[/tex]
*The answer must have a positive sign.*
Hope this helps!
