ok is the answer x=6 for this problem which is (2)/(3)(x+6)=0?
multiply both sides by 4
(2/3)(3)(x+6) = 0(6)
2(x+6) = 0
divide both sides by 2
x+6 = 0
x = - 6
I need a coffee,
Here is the correct version, sorry about the typos
multiply both sides by 3
(2/3)(3)(x+6) = 0(3)
2(x+6) = 0
divide both sides by 2
x+6 = 0
x = - 6
There is no value of x that will give
you 0 in this Eq. The output approaches o as x approaches infinity.
It can reach 0 only if the numerator
reached 0. But it is constant.
Reiny, does the numerator in this
problem = 2? If so, the Eq cannot = 0.
Henry, I followed the order of operation
Maria did not say
2/((3)(x+6)) = 0
e.g.
(2)/(3)(6) = 4 not 1/9

To find the value of x in the equation (2/3)(x+6) = 0, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of (2/3), which is 3/2:
(3/2) * (2/3)(x+6) = (3/2) * 0
(x+6) = 0
Step 2: Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:
(x+6) - 6 = 0 - 6
x + 0 = -6
x = -6
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -6, not x = 6.
