Hello there! I am totally confused what does x =
4x+3+2x= 54/9
Thank you ;) & please help me!?!
4x+3+2x= 54/9
6x + 3 - 3 = 6 - 3
6x = 3
x = 3/6 = 1/2
Thanks Ms. Sue your the BEST!!!!! (You should be a teacher)
Hehehe! I AM a teacher. Actually I am retired from 32 years of teaching. <g>
Thank you.
O gosh that's a very long time wish you were my teacher (where did you teach? If you don't mind me asking)
I taught in a rural school in southwestern Michigan. Mostly I taught middle school English and social studies with an occasional 7th grade math class to keep me on my toes. :-)
That's cool :)
Hello! I'd be happy to help you understand how to solve the equation x = (4x + 3) + (2x) = 54/9 step by step!
To start, let's simplify the equation. We have:
4x + 3 + 2x = 54/9
First, combine like terms on the left side of the equation. Since we have two terms with x, we can add them together:
6x + 3 = 54/9
Next, let's simplify the right side of the equation. 54/9 can be reduced to a simpler fraction. Both 54 and 9 are divisible by 9, so we divide both numbers by 9 to get:
6x + 3 = 6/1
Now, let's get rid of the fraction on the right side of the equation. We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by the denominator of the fraction, which is 1 in this case. So:
(6x + 3) * 1 = (6/1) * 1
Simplifying this gives us:
6x + 3 = 6
Now, we want to isolate the variable x. So, let's get rid of the constant term on the left side of the equation by subtracting 3 from both sides:
6x + 3 - 3 = 6 - 3
Simplifying this gives us:
6x = 3
Finally, we divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x, which is 6:
(6x)/6 = 3/6
Simplifying this gives us:
x = 1/2
So, the solution to the equation x = (4x + 3) + (2x) = 54/9 is x = 1/2.
I hope this explanation helps you! Let me know if you have any further questions.
