The answer is -9 but i dont know how to solve it. Work please or explanation why. Thanks.


Sagot :

3/6x + 1/2 = 8/x + 4/3   I'm going to make common denominators so - 

                                          3/6x + 3/6 = 48/6x + 8/6
                                         - 3/6x             -3/6x
 
                                            3/6 = 45/6x +8/6
                                           -8/6               -8/6

                                           -5/6 = 45/6x 
                                            ·6x      6x

                                            -5x = 45
                                         ÷ -5      ÷ -5

                                            x = -9
