Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Distributive property
Using this property means when you have something like the equation on the right side ( 4 ( x + 3 ) ) you multiply both the values in the parentheses by the number outside:
4 ( x + 3 )
( 4 x X ) + ( 4 x 3 )
4x + 12
8x + 2 = 2x + 4x + 12
Step 2: combine like terms
Combining like terms is when you find like terms with the same variables and such and add them together:
8x + 2 = 12 + ( 2x + 4x )
8x + 2 = 12 + 6x
Step 3:Using inverse operations
This means that you need to get a variable one one side and a constant on the other:
8x + 2 ( -2 ) = 12 ( -2 ) + 6x
8x = 10 + 6x
8x ( -6x ) = 10 + 6x ( -6x )
2x = 10
Step 4: solve for the variable
The last thing you need to do is divide both sides by the constant with the variable ( 2x ) to get x by itself:
2x ( /2 ) = 10 ( /2 )
x = 5
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
A coefficient is a multiplicative factor. Whatever is in front of the variable is a coefficient
7/12-9/8(2x-1)-5/6(3x+2)=0
(7*2-9(2x-1)*3-5(3x+2)*4)/24=0
(14-9(2x-1)*3-5(3x+2)*4)/24=0
(14-27(2x-1)-20(3x+2)/24=0
(14-54x+27-60x-40)/24=0
(14+(-54x-60x)+27-40)/24=0
(14-114x+27-40)/24
(-144x+1)/24=0
-114x+1=0
-114x=-1
x=1/144
<u>Answer:</u>
1/9 > -4
because -4 is a negative no less than 0. whereas 1/9 is a positive no greater than 0.
So negative no can't be greater than positive no.
