Algebra.Com's Answer #7124 by Alwayscheerful(414)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! You first need to isolate the X on one side in order to solve this problem. \n" ); document.write( "So, move everything so that the 2/3X is by itself on the left side of the equal sign. \n" ); document.write( "*Remember that everytime you move something over the equal sign, you must change its sign. For example. x+5=10. If you move the 5 over, you change it from a positive state to a negative state. Then the equation becomes x=5\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Back you your problem... \n" ); document.write( "2/3x+4=9 \n" ); document.write( "Move the 4 over \n" ); document.write( "2/3x=5 \n" ); document.write( "Then, to get rid of the fraction, you multipy the fraction by its recipricol (flip the fraction upside-down) to the make coefficient 1\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3/2*2/3 x=5 \n" ); document.write( "*Remember that if you multiply one side with something, you must do the same for the other side. \n" ); document.write( "x=5*3/2 \n" ); document.write( "x=7.5 \n" ); document.write( " or \n" ); document.write( "x=15/2 \n" ); document.write( " |
