Question

(x - 1 9/17 ) + 2 14/17 = 5 5/17​

Answer 1

(x-1 9/17)+2 14/17=5 5/17
x-1 9/17= 5 5/17-2 14/17
x-1 9/17=4 22/17-2 14/17
x-1 9/17=2 8/17
x=2 8/17+1 9/17
x=3 17/17
x=4
x=

Answer 2

To solve the equation (x - 1 9/17) + 2 14/17 = 5 5/17, we can follow these steps:

Step 1: Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions. 1 9/17 = (17 * 1 + 9) / 17 = 26/17 2 14/17 = (17 * 2 + 14) / 17 = 48/17 5 5/17 = (17 * 5 + 5) / 17 = 90/17

The equation now becomes: (x - 26/17) + 48/17 = 90/17

Step 2: Combine the fractions on the left side of the equation. (x - 26/17) + 48/17 = (x + 48/17 - 26/17) = (x + 22/17)

The equation becomes: (x + 22/17) = 90/17

Step 3: Solve for x. To isolate x, we can subtract 22/17 from both sides of the equation:

(x + 22/17) - 22/17 = 90/17 - 22/17

This simplifies to:

x = 68/17

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 68/17.
