(x+10)/8 = x/3

\frac{x + 10}{8} = \frac{x}{3}

x = 6

Solution steps

\frac{x + 10}{8} = \frac{x}{3}

Apply fraction cross multiply: if

\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}

then

a \cdot d = b \cdot c

(x + 10) \cdot 3 = 8 x

Expand

(x + 10) \cdot 3 : 3 x + 30

3 x + 30 = 8 x

Move

30

to the right side

3 x = 8 x - 30

Move

8 x

to the left side

- 5 x = - 30

Divide both sides by

- 5

x = 6

\frac{y ^{2} z ^{8}}{yz}

2 x^{2} + 6 x - 3 = 0

(x^{2})^{3}

\frac{2 π}{\frac{7}{3}}

5 x^{2} = 2 x
