8/x=6/5 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the equation:
x8=56Use proportions rule:
From a1/b1 = a2/b2 should a1*b2 = a2*b1,
In this case
a1 = 1
b1 = -5/6
a2 = 1
b2 = -x/8
so we get the equation
−8x=−65−8x=−65Divide both parts of the equation by -1/8
x = -5/6 / (-1/8)
We get the answer: x = 20/3
The graph
x1=320
