Help!!!! question coming up!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is x-4 all under 15, same question for the x+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no its separate so 15/x then -4 and its 6/x then +3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hm?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okey. Get all of your constants on 1 side.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I really don't know how to start though idk what my constacts are

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

just do cross multiplication 15(x+3)=6(x-4) 15x+45 =6x -24 15x-6x =-24 -45 9x = -69 x=-69\9 x=-23\3 is the correct answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They aren't all fully under.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got a different answer...

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

i am sure i am correct absolutly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15/x -4 = 6/x +3 9/x=7 7x=9 x=9/7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-4 and 3 aren't under the division.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you would add 4, then put x on one side. Then multiply by x for both sides to get it out of the denominator. Then divide by 7 to get x by itself.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, the answer would be x=9/7

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

if u will put my answer on the both sides at the place of x and solve it then u will get the both number are same like 4=4 if u got that both sides numbers are same then it is correct if not then answer is wrong .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im so confused now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wHen you would put it back in, the left would be -2.04, and the right would be 3.78

OpenStudy (dls):

This is really some nice "Calculus".

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

i solved it wrong because according to yur previous statement i think i am right but now yur equation is different . os @falshy is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, x=9/7, okey, ty, I started wondering if i was doing something wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1409077001645:dw| I have this im stuck here
