You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(3/x) + 8 = 2
\n" ); document.write( "3/x = -6 you know how to get there right
\n" ); document.write( "NOW DO YOU KNOW EVERY SINGLE NUMBER HAVE A 1 IN THE BOTTOM so Example: 1 is equal to 1/1=1 and 3 is equal to 3/1=3 SO 6 = 6/1 = 6
\n" ); document.write( "3/x = -6/1 do cross multification you will get -6x = 3 then divide by -6 both side so x = -3/6 = -1/2 or -0.5\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "SEE A CLEAR VIEW\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3/x + 8 = 2
\n" ); document.write( " - 8 -8
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "3/x = -6 SAME AS 3/x = -6/1 now CROSS MULTIFICATION top * bottom and bottom *top
\n" ); document.write( " 3/x = -6/1
\n" ); document.write( "so therfore x*-6 = 3*1
\n" ); document.write( " -6x = 3 now divide by -6 both side
\n" ); document.write( " -6x/-6 = 3/-6
\n" ); document.write( " x = -3/6 now simplify -3/6 by dividing by 3
\n" ); document.write( " x = -1/2 OR -0.05 \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
