Question

2 = x + 10/13two step Equation

Answer 1

We are asked to solve the following equation:

`2=x+(10)/(13)`

we can solve it by first subtracting 10/13 on both sides, like this:

`2-(10)/(13)=x+(10)/(13)-(10)/(13)`

Solving the operations we get:

`2-(10)/(13)=x`

Solving the operation on the left side:

`\begin{gathered} (26-10)/(13)=x \\ (16)/(13)=x \end{gathered}`

therefore, the value of "x" is 16/13
