Masja [62]

The solution of the linear equation is x = 0.

<h3>What is the linear equation?</h3>

An equation is a mathematical statement, which has an equal sign (=) between the algebraic expression.

Linear equations are the equations of degree 1.

The given linear equation is;

\rm 2(x-3)+ 9=3(x+ 1) +x

The value of x is determined in the following steps given below.\rm 2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x\\\\2x-6+9=3x+3+x\\\\\ 2x+3=4x+3\\\\3-3=4x-2x\\\\0=2x\\\\x=0

Hence, the solution of the linear equation is x = 0.

What's two thirds of a straight line?
Komok [63]
Well if the straight line is equal to 1 then your answer is 2/3 but if the straight line is not equal to 1 you need to know what it is equal to or you could use the equation y = (2/3)x
"x" would be the length of the straight line and "y" would be two-thirds of it
