Answer:
[tex]x = - 18.825[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{5}{6}( \frac{3}{8} - x)
= 16 \\ \frac{(5)(3)}{(6)(8)} - \frac{5x}{6} = 16 \\ 15 - 40x = 768\\ 40x = 15 - 768\\ x = - 18.825[/tex]
The value of x for the equation to be equal is- 40/753
Solution to linear equation
Given the linear equation expressed as:
5/6 (3/8 - x) = 16
Open the parenthesis
5/16 - 5/6x = 16
Collect the like terms
-5/6x = 16 - 5/16
-5/6x = 251/16
Cross multiply
1506x = -80
x = -80/1506
x = -40/753
Hence the value of x for the equation to be equal is- 40/753
