(3(8-x))/5 =x

\frac{3 ( 8 - x )}{5} = x

x = 3

Solution steps

\frac{3 ( 8 - x )}{5} = x

Multiply both sides by

5

3 (8 - x) = 5 x

Expand

3 (8 - x) : 24 - 3 x

24 - 3 x = 5 x

Move

24

to the right side

- 3 x = 5 x - 24

Move

5 x

to the left side

- 8 x = - 24

Divide both sides by

- 8

x = 3

\frac{4.9}{4.9 - 5}

(24 m^{3} n) \cdot (\frac{1}{4} n)

6 x^{2} - 19 x - 36 = 0

\frac{3 s}{t ^{2}} \cdot \frac{s ^{2}}{t}

(\frac{7}{4})^{2}
