8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 x + x = 20

2/3 x + 3/3x = 20

5/3 x = 20 ... times 3/5 both sides

x = 12

check: 2/3 x 12 + 12 = 8 + 12 = 20

Solve the following equation 2/3x+6=1/2x+1/4x

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

x= 72

Step-by-step explanation:

combine the Xs on one side and then make the denominators the same and solve

8/12X +6 = 3/4X

sub 6 on both sides

then sub 3/4 (aka. 9/12)

-1/12X= -6

multiply by reciprocal (the fraction flip-flopped)(-12) on both sides

and you get 72
