Answer:

[tex] \dfrac{580}{9} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \dfrac{1}{5}x + \dfrac{1}{4}x = 29 [/tex]

[tex] \dfrac{4}{20}x + \dfrac{5}{20}x = 29 [/tex]

[tex] \dfrac{9}{20}x = 29 [/tex]

[tex] x = 29 \times \dfrac{20}{9} [/tex]

[tex] x = \dfrac{580}{9} [/tex]

Answer: [tex] \dfrac{580}{9} [/tex]
