Answer:

x = \frac{-4}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 4) = 12x

3x - 12 = 12x --->by the distributive property of equality

-9x = 12 ---> subtraction property of equality

x = -9/12 ---> division property of equality

x = -4/3 as simplified

Answer:

x = -\frac{4}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive Property:

3 (x - 4) = 12x

3x - 12 = 12x

Combine like terms and isolate the variable:

3x - 12 = 12x

-12 = 9x

-\frac{4}{3} = x

x = -\frac{4}{3}

Write 5/10 in three equivalent forms
krek1111 [17]

equivalent fractions are fractions which have the same value.

equivalent fractions all have the same simplified form

we can write equivalent fractions by multiplying both numerator and denominator by the same number. We can also write equivalent fractions by dividing both numerator and denominator by the same number

so 5/10

we can get the equivalent fractions by multiplying by a common number

when we multiply by 2

\frac{5}{10}* 2= \frac{5*2}{10*2} = \frac{10}{20}

when we multiply by 3

\frac{5}{10}* 3 = \frac{5*3}{10*3} = \frac{15}{30}

when we multiply by 4

\frac{5}{10} *4 = \frac{5*4}{10*4}  = \frac{20}{40}

the three equivalent fractions are

10/20 , 15/30, 20/40
