Question

4x + 6 over 2 equals 3x - 15 over 3​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{4x+6}{2}=\dfrac{3x-15}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\3(4x+6)=2(3x-15)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\(3)(4x)+(3)(6)=(2)(3x)+(2)(-15)\\\\12x+18=6x-30\qquad\text{subtract 18 from both isdes}\\\\12x=6x-48\qquad\text{subtract}\ 6x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\6x=-48\qquad\text{divide both sides by 6}\\\\x=-8$

Answer 2

Answer:

    x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

                  15                 5

Simplify -    _              -  —

                    3          to    1

           6

(4x +  —) -  (3x -  5)  = 0  

           2                                Next simplify 6/2 to 3/1 or 3

 (4x +  3) -  (3x - 5)  = 0

 x + 8  = 0
