0.2=(1716-x)/x

0.2 = \frac{1716 - x}{x}

x = 1430

Solution steps

0.2 = \frac{1716 - x}{x}

Multiply both sides by

x

0.2 x = 1716 - x

Multiply both sides by

10

2 x = 17160 - 10 x

Move

10 x

to the left side

12 x = 17160

Divide both sides by

12

x = 1430

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 1430

\frac{40}{y} = 8

\frac{( x + 5 ) !}{( x + 3 ) !} = 30

x, 2 = \frac{y - 10}{x - 5}

\frac{1}{y ^{2}} - y^{2} = 1

x + \frac{3}{x ^{2}} = 0
