Question

Solve the rational equation quantity 3 times x minus 5 end quantity divided by 7 equals four sevenths.

Answer 1

3

Explanation:

If we write it out, the equation will be 3x-5/7 = 4/7. So first, we can multiply 7 by both sides to get 3x - 5 = 4. Next, we can add 5 to both sides to get 3x = 9. Lastly, we'll divide 3 by both sides to get x = 3.
