Question

2 over 3 (x-2)=4x

Answer 1

HI!!

Answer 2

i bet it is \[\frac{2}{3}(x-2)=4x\] am i right?

Answer 3

\[\frac{ 2 }{ 3}(x-2)=4x\]

Answer 4

yeah that is what i thought
i would get rid of the annoying fractions right away and multiply both sides by \(\frac{3}{2}\)

Answer 5

that will leave you with just \(x-2\) on the left

Answer 6

what is \[\frac{3}{2}\times 4x\]?

Answer 7

would it be \[\frac{ 16 }{ 8}\]

Answer 8

no

Answer 9

\[\frac{3}{2}\times 4\]
divide 4 by 2, then multiply the result by 3

Answer 10

so would it be 9

Answer 11

no not 9
lets go slow
what is 4 divided by 2?

Answer 12

2

Answer 13

ok and what is \(3\times 2\)?

Answer 14

6

Answer 15

ok good
that makes \[\frac{3}{2}\times 4x=6x\]

Answer 16

ok

Answer 17

so now finally we have \[x-2=6x\] you need to solve that one

Answer 18

5x

Answer 19

yes you get \[-2=5x\]

Answer 20

so would it be \[-\frac{ 2 }{ 5 }\]

Answer 21

yes it would

Answer 22

thanks so much

Answer 24

2
----(x−2)=4x
3

- so i think one more easy way to solve same exercise

2 4x
----(x-2) = ---- in this case cross multiplie and will get
3 1

1*2(x-2) = 3*4x

2(x-2) = 12x

2x-4= 12x

2x-2x-4 = 12x-2x

-4 = 10x divide both sides by 10

-4/10 = x

-2*2/(2*5) = x so simplifie by 2

-2/5 = x
