Answer:

The solution of the equation is x = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We have the following equation:

4/3x + 5/4 = 3/x

Subtract 3/x and 5/4 to both sides of the equation

4/3x - 3/x = -5/4

multiply both sides by x

x(4/3x - 3/x) = (-5/4)x

Apply distributive property

4/3 - 3 = (-5/4)x

-5/3 = (-5/4)x

divide both sides by (-5/4)

-5/3 / (-5/4) = x

4/3 = x

Now let´s check the solution:

4/(3 · 4/3) + 5/4 = 3/(4/3)

1 + 5/4 = 9/4

9/4 = 9/4

Then, the solution of the equation is x = 4/3

Have a nice day!

Solve this linear equation <br> 2(x+6)&lt;3x+8
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

x > 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(x + 6) < 3x + 8 ← distribute left side

2x + 12 < 3x + 8 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

- x + 12 < 8 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

- x < - 4

Multiply both sides by - 1, reversing the symbol as a result of multiplying by a negative quantity.

x > 4

maw [93]

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

So here’s the step by step (for the show your work thingy)

so we can write an equation

0.05x=12

We use 0.05 becuase 5 percent is basically 5/100 and the x is used becuase we don’t know what the number is and the =12 is for the number that came out as a final result

ow we can solve the equation

x=12/0/05

x=240
