2/x = 12/18
cross multiply
(12)(x) = (18)(2)
12x = 36
x = 36/12
x = 3

The Corrected Problem is :

2:x and 12:18 identify the value of x that makes each pair of ratios equivalent .

Solution:

If a pair of Ratios are equivalent then we can write

\frac{2}{x}=\frac{12}{18}\\ \\ \text{Simplify we get}\\ \\ 12x=36\\ \\ \text{Divide both the sides by 12 we get}\ \\ \\ \frac{12x}{12}=\frac{36}{12}\\ \\  x=3\\ \\ \text{Hence the required value of x is 3}\\

What is the solution to the following system of equations? 3x-2y=12 and 6x-4y=24
Tems11 [23]
Multiplying the first equation by -2 results in -6x + 4y = -24.
Adding this result to the second equation:

<span>6x-4y=24
</span>-6x + 4y = -24
------------------
           0  = 0

There are an infinite number of solutions, since the 2 given equations represent collinear lines.
