Solve the proportion: 35=x20

Sagot :

Answer:

either x = 1.75 or x = 700 , question wasn't clear

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you put the x in front of 20 , you might be meaning x/20 (second answer listed)? Or, you put the variable on the wrong side of 20. (first answer listed)

If you meant to type 20x

35 = 20x

÷20   ÷20     *

1.75 = x

*divide both sides by 20 to isolate x

x = 1.75

(x = [tex]\frac{35}{20}[/tex])

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you meant to type x/20

35 = [tex]\frac{x}{20}[/tex]

·20   ·20       *

700 = x

*multiply both sides by 20 to isolate x

700 = x
