if m <1 = 2x-3 and m<2=6x-1 how can i find x
What is the relationship between the two angles ?
e.g. are they equal ?
or what?
yes there equal
then just set them equal ....
6x-1 = 2x - 3
4x = -2
x = - 1/2 ??????
This question makes no sense, the angles would be
-4 each.
That what i got 2 -4?
To find the value of x, you need to solve the system of equations represented by the two given equations. Here's a step-by-step process to find x:
1. Set the expressions for m1 and m2 equal to each other:
2x - 3 = 6x - 1
2. Simplify the equation by combining like terms:
Subtract 2x from both sides:
-3 = 4x - 1
3. Isolate the x-term by moving the constant term to the other side of the equation:
Add 1 to both sides:
-3 + 1 = 4x
Simplify:
-2 = 4x
4. Solve for x by dividing both sides by the coefficient of x (4):
Divide by 4:
-2/4 = x
Simplify:
-1/2 = x
Hence, the value of x is -1/2.
