$2n - 39 = 5(n + 2n)\\2n - 39 = 5(3n)\\2n - 39 = 15n\\2n = 15n + 39\\-13n = 39\\\\n = -3$

What is equivalent to 36/72

AveGali [126]

1/2 because 36 is half of 72. You could also divide the numbers by 12 and you will get 3/6 which is the same as 1/2.

Answer:

x = 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{4x-6}{4}$ = $\frac{2x+5}{3}$ ( cross- multiply )

3(4x - 6) = 4(2x + 5) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

12x - 18 = 8x + 20 ( subtract 8x from both sides )

4x - 18 = 20 ( add 18 to both sides )

4x = 38 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = $\frac{38}{4}$ = 9.5
