First, it would help to simplify each side more:
Left side: 36 + 3(4x - 9) = 36 + 12x - 27 = 12x + 9
Right side: c(2x + 1) + 25 = 2cx + c + 25
Write the simplified equation:
12x + 9 = 2cx + c + 25
Usually when there is no solution, the coefficients of the variable on both sides are the same, so we can make the coefficient if x on the right side into 12:
2cx >>> 12x
Then, c must equal 6 to make this true.
The answer is choice (C).
Answer:
<h3> The equation has one valid solution and no extraneous of solutions.</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression;
4x/3x+1 = x/2x+10
We are to get the nature of the value of x
Cross multiply;
x(3x+1) = 4x(2x+10)
3x²+x = 8x²+40x
Collect like terms;
3x²-8x² + x - 40x = 0
-5x²+x -40x = 0
-5x²-39x = 0
-5x² = 39x
-5x = 39
x = -39/5
<em>Since we have just one value of x hence, the equation has one valid solution and no extraneous of solutions.</em>

Answer:
1 10/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the fractions and get them to the same bottom number, 12. So it would be 5 4/12 - 3 6/12.
Take 1 away from 5 to get 4 and the one you pulled would be 12/12(also equal to 1). 4 16/12 - 3 6/12 would be 1 10/12
Answer:
0.0049
Step-by-step explanation:
(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
