Answer:
[tex]x=6/13[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have:
[tex]\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{3}{7}=1-\frac{4}{7}x[/tex]
Remove all the fractions to make things simpler. To do so, we can multiply by the LCM of the denominators.
The denominators are 3 and 7.
The LCM of 3 and 7 is 21. Thus, multiply everything by 21:
[tex]21(\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{3}{7})=21(1-\frac{4}{7}x)[/tex]
Distribute:
[tex]\frac{42}{3}x+\frac{63}{7}=21-\frac{84}{7}x[/tex]
Simplify the fractions:
[tex]14x+9=21-12x[/tex]
Add 12x to both sides:
[tex]26x+9=21[/tex]
Subtract 9 from both sides:
[tex]26x=12[/tex]
Divide both sides by 26:
[tex]x=12/26[/tex]
Reduce:
[tex]x=6/13[/tex]
And that's our answer :)
Answer: x = 6/13
find the common denominator (21);
14/21x + 9/21 = 21/21 - 12/21x
move your variable to one side and your constants to the other:
26/21x = 12/21
multiply all by 21/26 to get a lone x:
x = 12/26
simplify:
x = 6/13
