Question

If $\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)x–2=5–\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)x$, then $x$$=$_______ .

Answer 1

Solving for $\mathrm{x}$:

Given : $\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)x–2=5–\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)x$

$$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)x+\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)x=5+2 \\ \Rightarrow \left(\frac{2+3}{5}\right)x=7 \\ \Rightarrow \left(\frac{5}{5}\right)x=7 \\ \Rightarrow x=7 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the value of the $x$ is $7$.
