What is the solution of the equation 2/ 5X +4 = 1/5?

Answer 1

To find the solution of the equation:

2/(5x) + 4 = 1/5

First, subtract 4 from both sides of the equation:

2/(5x) = 1/5 - 4

Simplify the right side of the equation:

2/(5x) = 1/5 - 20/5

2/(5x) = -19/5

Next, to isolate the variable, cross multiply:

2 * 5 = -19 * (5x)

10 = -95x

To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by -95:

10/-95 = x

Thus, the solution to the equation 2/(5x) + 4 = 1/5 is x = -2/19.
