Answer:
it is a solvable equation
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 2) -3(x - 4) = 6 and x = 4
if x = 4 then fill in all the x's with 4 so the equation is now:
(4 + 2) -3(4 - 4) = 6
Use PEMDAS
Now the equation is 6 - 3(0) = 6
-3 times 0 is 0 so it's 6-0=6
6 = 6
when you put the 4 in for the x variables and the numbers on both sides of the equal sign are the same it makes the equation true
hope this makes sense and hope it helps :)

In linear algebra, the rank of a matrix
A
A is the dimension of the vector space generated (or spanned) by its columns.[1] This corresponds to the maximal number of linearly independent columns of
A
A. This, in turn, is identical to the dimension of the vector space spanned by its rows.[2] Rank is thus a measure of the "nondegenerateness" of the system of linear equations and linear transformation encoded by
A
A. There are multiple equivalent definitions of rank. A matrix's rank is one of its most fundamental characteristics.
The rank is commonly denoted by
rank
(
A
)
{\displaystyle \operatorname {rank} (A)} or
rk
(
A
)
{\displaystyle \operatorname {rk} (A)}; sometimes the parentheses are not written, as in
rank
A
{\displaystyle \operatorname {rank} A}.
Let Xavier's favourite fraction be a/b, Yessie's favourite fraction = b/a and Zorro's favourite fraction = c/d,
c/d x a/b = 12/35 . . . . . . . . (1)
c/d x b/a = 15/7 . . . . . . . . (2)
(1) x (2) = c/d x a/b x c/d x b/a = 12/35 x 15/7
c^2 / d^2 = 36/49
c^2 = 36
c = 6
d^2 = 49
d = 7
Xaviers favourite fraction = 12/35 / 6/7 = 2/5
Yessies favourite fraction = 5/2
Zorro favourite fraction = 6/7
