Solve 2/x+5=34

$$\frac{ 2 }{ x } +5=34$$

Solve for x

$$x=\frac{2}{29}\approx 0.068965517$$

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.

$$2+x\times 5=34x$$

Subtract 34x from both sides.

$$2+x\times 5-34x=0$$

Combine x\times 5 and -34x to get -29x.

$$2-29x=0$$

Subtract 2 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$-29x=-2$$

Divide both sides by -29.

$$x=\frac{-2}{-29}$$

Fraction \frac{-2}{-29} can be simplified to \frac{2}{29} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.

$$x=\frac{2}{29}$$
