( | 1 2 | x | ) | + | ( | 4 5 | ( | 25 | − | x | ) | ) | = | 17 |
Left side of the equation = | 1 2 | x | + | ( | 4 5 | ( | 25 | − | x | ) | ) |
= | 1 2 | x | + | 4 5 | ( | 25 | − | x | ) |
= | 1 2 | x | + | 4 5 | × | 25 | − | 4 5 | x |
= | 1 2 | x | + | 20 | − | 4 5 | x |
= | - | 3 10 | x | + | 20 |
- | 3 10 | x | + | 20 | = | 17 |
- | 3 10 | x | = | 17 | − | 20 |
- | 3 10 | x | = | - | 3 |
3 | = | 3 10 | x |
3 10 | x | = | 3 |
x | = | 3 | ÷ | 3 10 |
= | 3 | × | 10 3 |
= | 1 | × | 10 |
x | = | 10 |
