Question

Algebra- Find the value of X

Answer 1

x =4.5

Explanation:

this is an isosceles triangle

the legs are equal

4x + 6 = 6x - 3

subtract 6 from both sides

4x +6 - 6 =6x - 3 - 6

4x = 6x - 9

subtract 6x from both sides

4x -6x = 6x - 6x -9

-2x = -9

divide both sides by -2

-2x /-2= -9/-2

x =4.5

Answer 2

x=4.5

Explanation:

To find the value of x, you need to isolate to solve 4x+6=6x-3.

First, subtract 6 from both sides.

4x+6-6=6x-3-6

Then, you simplify.

3-6=-9

4x=6x-9

Next, subtract 6x from both sides.

4x-6x=6x-6x-9

Simplify.

-2x=-9

Also, divide -2 from both sides.

-2x/-2=-9/-2

Finally, simplify to find the answer.

-9/-2=4.5

x=4.5, which is our answer.

Hope this helps!
