Question

30 is divided by the sum of 3 and x if the result is 5 find x​

Answer 1

Answer: x = 3

Step-by-step explanation: 3 + 3 = 6 ; 30 divided by 6 = 5.

Answer 2

x = 3

Explanation:

`(30)/(3+x)` = 5 ( models the statement )

multiply both sides by 3 + x

30 = 5(3 + x)

30 = 15 + 5x ( subtract 15 from both sides )

15 = 5x ( divide both sides by 5 )

3 = x
