Cevap

24
By distributing the fractions to the terms inside the parentheses, we get 6x9x+3=186x - 9 - x + 3 = 18. Combining like terms on the left side yields 5x6=185x - 6 = 18. Adding 6 to both sides gives the value of 5x5x as 24.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the coefficients outside the parentheses to the terms inside.
34(8x)34(12)12(2x)+12(6)=18\frac{3}{4}(8x) - \frac{3}{4}(12) - \frac{1}{2}(2x) + \frac{1}{2}(6) = 18, which simplifies to 6x9x+3=186x - 9 - x + 3 = 18.
To eliminate the parentheses and prepare to combine like terms.
2
Combine like terms on the left side of the equation.
(6xx)+(9+3)=18(6x - x) + (-9 + 3) = 18, which simplifies to 5x6=185x - 6 = 18.
To simplify the linear expression on the left side.
3
Isolate the term 5x5x by adding 6 to both sides of the equation.
5x=18+65x = 18 + 6, which simplifies to 5x=245x = 24.
To find the value of 5x5x directly as requested by the question.
