5x-2=1/2
how do you solve
algebra
plz help

X=0.5 or 1/2

Explanation:

If you are trying to solve for X, you must first isolate the variable by adding two on both sides of the equation

5x-2=1/2

    +2    +2

Then you have

5x=1/2+2

You can simplify this by adding 1/2 and 2 together to get 2.5 or 2 and 1/2

Then, to further isolate the variable, divide both sides by 5

5x/5= 2.5/5

The fives cancel out on the left side so you are left with

x=0.5 or 1/2

crop rotation kepy different plants in the soil instead of once constintly. when switching out plants you have different nutrients being absorbed at different speeds and different roots growing differently therfore the spoil and water flow have to adapt and carry fresh nutrients to carry the constant changes that were going on in the soil.
