Q. Solve for s s and simplify your answer.\newline52s=17 \frac{5}{2} s=17 \newlineAnswer:
  1. Understand the equation: Understand the equation.\newlineThe equation given is (5)/(2)s=17(5)/(2)s = 17, which means that 55 divided by 22 times ss equals 1717. We need to solve for ss.
  2. Isolate ss: Isolate ss.\newlineTo isolate ss, we need to get rid of the fraction. We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by 22.\newline(2)×(5)(2)s=17×(2)(2) \times \frac{(5)}{(2)}s = 17 \times (2)
  3. Simplify the equation: Simplify the equation.\newlineMultiplying both sides by 22 gives us:\newline5s=345s = 34
  4. Solve for s: Solve for s.\newlineNow, to solve for s, we divide both sides of the equation by 55.\newline5s5=345\frac{5s}{5} = \frac{34}{5}
  5. Calculate the value of ss: Calculate the value of ss.s=345s = \frac{34}{5}s=6.8s = 6.8
