Question

(x+6)/(x+1)=6/2 Solving proportions

Answer 1

Answer:

$x = \frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x + 6}{x + 1} = \frac{6}{2}$

$\frac{6}{2} = 3$

so, the solution of the equation will be as follows:

$\frac{x + 6}{x + 1} = 3$

3(x+1) = x + 6

3x + 3 = x + 6

3x - x = 6 - 3

$x = \frac{3}{2}$

so, the answer will be x = 3/2
