Answer:
No, you don't.
Step-by-step explanation:
The denominator only changes if you're multiplying/dividing. You may need to create an <em>equivalent fraction</em> to add the fractions together, but you <em>don't</em> add or subtract the denominator.
Hope this helps! Have a great day!
(13 + x)/(50 - x ) = (2/1)
Cross Multiply
2(50-x) = 1(13 + x)
100 - 2x = 13 + x
add 2x to both sides
100 -2x + 2x = 13 + x + 2x
100 = 13 + 3x
Subtract 13 from both sides
100 - 13 = 13 - 13 + 3x
87 = 3x
divide both sides by 3
29 = x
(13 + 29)/(50-29) = 42/21 = 2 to 1 ratio
Answer:
I am not 100% sure, however 6x-8=10 add 8 to both sides then youĺl get 6x=18 you divide 6 on both sides, then x will = to 3. I hope this helps
