The equation has one solution, x = 0
3x = 4x
-3x both sides
0 = 4x - 3x
0 = x
Answer:
XQ = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question it asks for XQ instead of x, but you need to find x first.
1. Find x.
XQ is half of MQ so this statement is true: 3x - 3 = 2(2x - 6)
Solve for x.
3x - 3 = 2(2x - 6)
Distribute 2.
3x - 3 = 4x - 12
Isolate x.
3x = 4x - 9
-x = -9
Divide -1 out.
x = 9
Now solve for XQ, which the equation is given.
XQ = 2(9) - 6
XQ = 18 - 6
XQ = 12

You plug in the values so it would be 24=15k. Divide by 15 on both sides so k=24/15=1.6. :)
