Linear and Simultaneous EquationsSolve: 6(x − 4) + 3(x + 7) = 3
- A.3/2
- B.2/3
- C.1/2
- D.1/3
- E.0
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: B (2/3)
Explanation
6x − 24 + 3x + 21 = 3 gives 9x − 3 = 3, so 9x = 6 and x = 2/3.
Solve: 6(x − 4) + 3(x + 7) = 3
Answer: B (2/3)
6x − 24 + 3x + 21 = 3 gives 9x − 3 = 3, so 9x = 6 and x = 2/3.
