Solve 30/x+10=50

$$\frac { 30 } { x } + 10 = 50$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{3}{4}=0.75$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Variable x cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x.

$$30+x\times 10=50x$$

Subtract 50x from both sides.

$$30+x\times 10-50x=0$$

Combine x\times 10 and -50x to get -40x.

$$30-40x=0$$

Subtract 30 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$-40x=-30$$

Divide both sides by -40.

$$x=\frac{-30}{-40}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-30}{-40} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out -10.

$$x=\frac{3}{4}$$
