Question

Solve and express the solution set in simplest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{11}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to be solve is

4x−1/3=7/1

We can go about this by first adding 1/3 to both sides.

$4x - \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{1} + \frac{1}{3}$

$\implies \ 4x = \frac{7}{1} + \frac{1}{3}$

We then simplify the the right hand side of the equation

$\implies 4x = \frac{21 + 1}{3}$

$\implies 4x = \frac{22}{3}$

To find x, we multiply through by 1/4

$\implies \frac{1}{4} \times 4x = \frac{22}{3} \times \frac{1}{4}$

$\implies x = \frac{22}{12}$

$\implies x = \frac{11}{6}$

Hence the solution set in the simplest form for the expression is

{x=11/2}
