Answer:
D: 8-4=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Without LCD :
1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24)
2x + 3 = 3x - 8
2x - 3x = -8 - 3
-x = - 11
x = 11
with LCD :
1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24) ...multiply by 6
3(4x + 6) = 2(9x - 24)
12x + 18 = 18x - 48
12x - 18x = -48 - 18
-6x = - 66
x = -66/-6
x = 11
Yes, the answers are the same :)
Answer:
infinitely many
Step-by-step explanation:
12x + 1 = 3(4x + 1) - 2
Distribute
12x + 1 = 12x + 3 - 2
Combine like terms
12x+1 = 12x +1
Subtract 12x from each side
1 =1
Since this is always true, we have infinite solutions
