Answer: x = 560/3
Step-by-step explanation:
First! We are going to be using the PEMDAS method! If you have any questions about this method please go ahead and ask below! The first step in our equation is the P - parenthesis, so we are going to multiply [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] to everything inside of the parenthesis (x and -710)!
[tex]\frac{3}{5} (x -710) = -314[/tex]
[tex]\frac{3}{5}x+(\frac{3}{5}*-710)=-314[/tex]
[tex]\frac{3}{5}x -426 = -314[/tex]
Now, we are going to add 426 to both sides of the equation, to single out the "x" variable!
[tex]\frac{3}{5}x= 112[/tex]
Finally, let's multiply both sides by [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] to cancel out the [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] fractions, to get the "x" variable alone.
[tex]x=\frac{560}{3}[/tex]
