Question 627585

{{{1/25 = 5x + 4}}}...first get a rid of fraction....both sides multiply by {{{25}


{{{(1/25)25 = 25*5x + 25*4}}}


{{{(1/cross(25))cross(25) = 125x + 100}}}

{{{1 = 125x + 100}}}

{{{1 -100= 125x}}}

{{{-99= 125x}}}

{{{-99/125=x}}}

{{{-0.792=x}}}


check:


{{{1/25 = 5x + 4}}}


{{{1/25 = 5(-0.792) + 4}}}

{{{0.04= -3.96 + 4}}}

{{{0.04= 0.04}}}
