-(12x - 6) = 12x + 6

First, distribute the negative sign on the left side.

It is the same as multiplying the quantity in parentheses by -1.

-1(12x - 6) = 12x + 6

-12x + 6 = 12x + 6

Now, subtract 12x from both sides.

-24x + 6 = 6

Subtract 6 from both sides.

-24x = 0

Divide both sides by -24.

x = 0/(-24)

x = 0

Answer: x = 0

X/6 + 2x/3 = 5 what is the value of x in the equation

ycow [4]

The value of x is 6 in the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is;

$\frac{x}{6}+\frac{2x}{3}=5$

Taking least common multiple

$\frac{x+4x}{6}=5$

Multiplying both sides by 6

$6*\frac{5x}{6}=5*6\\5x=30$

Dividing both sides by 5

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{30}{5}\\x=6$

The value of x is 6 in the equation.

Determine the value of K that would make this expression a perfect square

Mumz [18]

Answer: k=9/4

Step-by-step explanation: We can do this by finding a number that adds up to 3 when multiplied by 2. The best way to do this is to use ((b^2)/4) which can usually find you the number for a perfect square based on b, which we have. So, 3^2 / 4 =9/4, meaning k=9/4. We can check:

>x^2 +3x +9/4

> (x+3/2)(x+3/2)

Perfect square.
