Answer:
x = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] x + 2 = [tex]\frac{57}{16}[/tex]
Multiply through by 16 to clear the fractions
10x + 32 = 57 ( subtract 32 from both sides )
10x = 25 ( divide both sides by 10 )
x = [tex]\frac{25}{10}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
