Question

Solve the equation Quantity x plus 1 all over 3 = 2 for x. Please show your work and solution in the space provided.

Answer 1

(x+1)/3 = 2*x
if this is what youre asking
then the 3 which is for division would go up and multiply on the right hand side. Then x+1 = 6x.
Now as the x on the left hand side moves to the right, it becomes negative, making 6x-x = 5x. Youre left with 1 on the RHS
1 = 5x
therefore it becomes x = 1/5 (division of 1 by 5)

Answer 2

So its x=5

Answer 3

nono... x = 1/5.... 5*x = 1... So 5 goes down doesnt it :)

Answer 4

Yea..well thx
