Find the solution for the linear equation 2.5x=5?(a) x=-2(b) x=5(c) x=3(d) x=2This question was posed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.This is a very interesting question from Linear Equations in Two Variables topic in section Linear Equations in Two Variables of Mathematics – Class 9

Answer» CORRECT choice is (d) x=2

The explanation is: 2.5x=5

We KNOW that equations is not AFFECTED by dividing the same non-zero number both sides.

Hence, dividing the EQUATION by 2.5 both sides.

Therefore x=5/2.5

Hence, x = 2
