Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 8x from both sides.

5x+6−8x=8x+12−8x

−3x+6=12

Step 2: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−3x+6−6=12−6

−3x=6

Step 3: Divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

6

−3

x=−2

If a,b,c,d are in continuous proportion then prove that (c+a) (c+d) = (b+c) (b+d)​
sesenic [268]

Answer:

We must prove that (c+a)(c+d) = (b+c)(b+d)

  1. Let us use principles from mathematical induction
  2. \frac{a}{b}  =  \frac{b}{c}  =  \frac{c}{d}  = x
  3. a=bx , b=cx, c=dx
  4. a+c = b + c
  5. c +d = b + d
  6. Such that (a+c)(c+d)=(b+c)(b+d)
