Question

a)x+1/5=5/6.b)x-3/5=6/7.c)-x-7/5=-8/9.d)3/8-x=2/3.e)|x-8/9|=1/3

Answer 1

a, x + \(\dfrac{1}{5}\) = \(\dfrac{5}{6}\)

x = \(\dfrac{5}{6}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{5}\)

x = \(\dfrac{19}{30}\)

b, x - \(\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{6}{7}\)

x = \(\dfrac{6}{7}+\dfrac{3}{5}\)

x = \(1\dfrac{16}{35}\)

c, - x - \(\dfrac{7}{5}=\dfrac{-8}{9}\)

- x = \(\dfrac{-8}{9}+\dfrac{7}{5}\)

x = \(\dfrac{23}{45}\)

d, \(\dfrac{3}{8}-x=\dfrac{2}{3}\)

\(x=\dfrac{3}{8}-\dfrac{2}{3}\)

\(x=\dfrac{-7}{24}\)

e, \(|x-\dfrac{8}{9}|=\dfrac{1}{3}\)

\(x=\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{8}{9}\)

\(x=\dfrac{-11}{9}\)
