4(x+2)=3(x-2)

Multiply the first bracket by 4

Multiply the second bracket by 3

4x+8=3x-6

Move 3x to the left hand side, whenever moving a number with a letter the sign changes ( positive 3x to negative 3x)

4x-3x+8=3x-3x-6

x+8=-6

Move positive 8 to the right hand side

x+8-8=-6-8

x=-14

Check answer by using substitution method

Use x=-14 into both of the equations

4(-14+2)=3(-14-2)

-56+8=-42-6

-48=-48

Answer is -14- D)

Could you please help me with number 6 thank you sm !!

Answer:

  • A) a = 4, b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>#6</h3>

<u>Given equation:</u>

  • 4/(x - 3) + 2/(x - 2) = 2

<u>Multiply all terms by (x - 3)(x - 2):</u>

  • 4(x - 2) + 2(x - 3) = 2(x - 3)(x - 2)
  • 2(x - 2) + (x - 3) = (x - 3)(x - 2)
  • 2x - 4 + x - 3 = x² - 5x + 6
  • x² - 5x - 3x + 6 + 7 = 0
  • x² - 8x + 13 = 0
  • x = (8 ± √(8² - 4*13))/2 = (8 ± √12)/2 = (8 ± 2√3)/2 = 4 ± √3

<u>Compare this to the given form to get:</u>

  • a = 4, b = 3

Correct choice is A
