Solve the proportional<br> equation below:<br> x/4 = x-6/3

aleksandrvk [35]

<h2><u>PROPORTIONAL EQUATION</u></h2><h3>Exercise</h3>

Apply the means-extremes property of proportions: this allows you to cross multiply:

$\boxed{\mathsf{\dfrac{x}{4} = \dfrac{x - 6}{3}}}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{x}{4} \searrow \dfrac{x - 6}{3}}$ ‏‏‎ ‏‏‎‎ $\mathsf{\dfrac{x}{4} \nearrow \dfrac{x-6}{3}}$ ‏‏‎‎

$\boxed{\mathsf{3x = 4(x - 6)}}$

Apply the distributive property:

$\mathsf{3x = 4(x-6)}$

$\mathsf{3x = 4(x) - 4(6)}$

$\mathsf{3x = 4x - 24}$

Add 24 to both sides:

$\mathsf{3x + 24 = 4x - 24 + 24}$

$\mathsf{3x + 24 = 4x}$

Substract 3x to both sides

$\mathsf{3x - 3x + 24 = 4x - 3x}$

$\mathsf{24 = 4x - 3x}$

$\large{\boxed{\mathsf{24 = x}}}$

‎ ‏‏‎

<h3><u>Answer</u>. The value of x = 24.</h3>
