Let the number be x,
(1/2)x=1+(1/3)x
Solving for x,
(1/2)x-(1/3)x=1+(1/3)x-(1/3)x
(1/2)x-(1/3)x=1
(1*3/6)x-(1*2/6)x=1
(3/6)x-(2/6)x=1
(1/6)x=1
6*(1/6)x=6*1
Therefore, x=6
12-5x+6x=412-5x+6x=4 the answer is going to be
x=-12
12-5(-12)+6(-12)=412-5(-12)+6(-12)=4
Answer:
x = 1.2...
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the given equation and isolate the variable.
6.2x + 1.2 = 8.9
Subtract 1.2 from each side:
6.2x = 7.7
Divide each side by 6.2:
x = 1.2...
