5=(40)/x

Solution

5 = \frac{40}{x}

x = 8

Solution steps

5 = \frac{40}{x}

Multiply both sides by

x

5 x = 40

Divide both sides by

5

x = 8

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 8

295 = 4 8^{2} \frac{( 8 + x )}{11 x + 24}

\frac{42}{t} = 7

\frac{x + 1}{x - 1} = \frac{10}{5}

\frac{x ^{4} - 1}{x - 1} = 0

\frac{x - 2}{x - 2} = 1
