Question

5x-d/6 =2x

a. d= 7/6x
b. d = 7x
c. d = – 7x
d. d= -7/6x

Answer 1

Woops

\[\large 5x - \frac{d}{6} = 2x\]

Like that?

Answer 2

um. i think

Answer 3

Nope I tried it like that and it doesn't work lol

Answer 4

So I'm actually going to assume it is

\[\large \frac{5x - d}{6} = 2x\]

Answer 5

what are you trying to do

Answer 6

solve the equation for D

Answer 7

So you would multiply both sides by 6

\[\large 5x - d = 12x\]

Now subtract 5x from both sides of the equation

\[\large -d = 7x\]

And finally divide both sides by '-'

\[\large d = -7x\]

Answer 8

ok

Answer 9

wait a sec wouldnt you multiply the 5x to both sides to get rid of 5x by the d

Answer 10

At what part? @Dmb1215

Answer 11

the first part 5x-d/6=2x
-d/6=2x*5x

Answer 12

No...so we have

\[\large \frac{5x - d}{6} = 2x\]

The first thing you need to do is get rid of that fraction...because you cannot do anything with a fraction on 1 side...

That is why I multiplied by 6...it cancels out the fraction...

\[\large 5x - d = 12x \]

Them it's just combining like terms....

Answer 13

ok
