If (5x/3) – 4 = (2x/5), then the numerical value of 2x – 7 is
(a) 19/13
(b) -13/19
(c) 0
(d) 13/19
(b) -13/19
Given, (5x/3) – 4 = (2x/5)
(5x/3) - (2x/5) = 4
LCM of 3 and 5 is 15
(25x – 6x)/15 = 4
19x = 4 × 15
19x = 60
X = 60/19
Then, Substitute the value of x in 2x -7
= (2 × (60/19)) – 7
= (120/19) – 7
= (120 - 133)/19
= - 13/19
