Question

2x+1)/(4)+(4x+1)/(6)=(1)

Answer 1

ah solve for x
make your life easy and multiply both sides by 12 to clear the fractions

Answer 2

\[3(2x+1)+2(4x+1)=12\] and then it will be much easier

Answer 3

multiply out, combine like terms etc. you good from there?

Answer 4

urm no tottally sure but this is wat I got wen i tried it..

Answer 5

did you get
\[x=\frac{1}{2}\]?

Answer 6

no i got 6x/6 =22/6

Answer 7

which gave me x=3.666667

Answer 8

=/ dnt think its right is it

Answer 9

start here
\[3(2x+1)+2(4x+1)=12\]

Answer 10

how did you get 3(2x+1)+2(4x+1)=12

Answer 11

then multiply out using the distributive property
\[6x+3+8x+2=12\]
combine like terms
\[14x+5=12\] subtract 5
\[14x=7\] divide by 14
\[x=\frac{1}{2}\]

Answer 12

im confused =/ sorry...

Answer 13

multiply both sides by the least common multiply of 4 and 6, which is 12 i will write the steps

Answer 14

(2x+1)/(4)+(4x+1)/(6)=(1)

(2x+1)/(4) * (3)/(3) + (4x+1)/(6) * (2)/(2)=(1)

(2x+1)(3)/(12)+((4x+1)(2))/(12)=(1)

((2x+1)(3)+((4x+1)(2)))/(12)=(1)

(14x+5)/(12)=(1)

14x+5=12

14x=7

x=1/2

Answer 15

\[\frac{2x+1}{4}+\frac{4x+1}{6}=1\]
\[12\left(\frac{2x+1}{4}+\frac{4x+1}{6}\right)=1\times 12\]
\[3(2x+1)+2(4x+1)=12\] the last line because 4 goes in to 12 3 times and 6 goes in to 12 2 times

Answer 16

don't forget the parentheses because you have to mulitply out using the distributive law

Answer 17

okay thanks.
