Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, we can use PEMDAS or Order of Operations.

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication>Division

Addition>Subtraction

Using the various properties can also help make the equation easier.

First, solve for parenthesis using the distributive property.

Our equation is now : 3/4x+3=1/4x+2

Now, subtract 2 on both sides, to cancel out the positive 2 on the right.

3/4x+1=1/4x

Now subtract 3/4x from both sides.

1=-2/4x

Finally, to isolate x, divide both sides by -2/4

1/-2/4=-2

x=-2

Hope this helps!

Plsss help me with this:(((

Answer:

$\frac{2 {a}^{2} }{3 {b}^{3} } \div \frac{6 {a}^{3} }{5 {b}^{2} } = \frac{2 {a}^{2} }{3 {b}^{3} } \times \frac{5 {b}^{2} }{6 {a}^{3} } = \frac{5}{9ab} \\ \\ \frac{ {x}^{2} - 5x + 6}{ {x}^{2} - 6x + 9} + \frac{4x - 12}{{x}^{2} - 6x + 9} \\ = \frac{{x}^{2} - 5x + 6 + 4x - 12}{{x}^{2} - 6x + 9} \\ = \frac{{x}^{2} - x - 6}{{x}^{2} - 6x + 9} \\ = \frac{(x - 3)(x + 2)}{(x - 3)(x - 3)} \\ = \frac{(x + 2)}{(x - 3)} \\ \\ \frac{3a}{a - b} - \frac{a + 2b}{a - b} \\ = \frac{3a - a + 2b}{a - b} \\ = \frac{2a - 2b}{a - b} \\ = 2\frac{a - b}{a - b} \\ = 2$

Which of the following equations have the same solution as the equation 3x+2y=-12 ? Check all that apply.

juin [17]

If one equation is the same, there is a multiply factor:

f*(3x+2y)=f*(-12)

You need to find the same factor for both members.

3x-2y=12. This is not the same.

-3x-2y=12. This is the same. The factor is (-1)

15x+10y=-60. This is the same. The factor is 5.

6x+2y=-12. This is not the same.

6x+4y=-24. This is not the same.

1.5x+y=-6. This is the same. The factor is 1/2.

x+ 2/3y=-12. This is not the same.

Good luck!
