Question

A/b(2x-12)=c/d solve for x

Answer 1

`x = (bc)/(2ad) + 6`

Explanation:

`(a)/(b)(2x - 12) = (c)/(d)`

`(b)/(a) * (a)/(b)(2x - 12) = (b)/(a) * (c)/(d)`

`2x - 12 = (bc)/(ad)`

`2x - 12 + 12 = (bc)/(ad) + 12`

`2x = (bc)/(ad) + 12`

`(1)/(2) * 2x = (1)/(2) * ((bc)/(ad) + 12)`

`x = (bc)/(2ad) + 6`

Answer 2

Let's solve for x.

Layout equation:

a/b

(2x−12)=c/d

Step 1: Multiply both sides by b.

2ax−12a=bc/d

Step 2: Multiply both sides by d.

2adx−12ad=bc

Step 3: Add 12ad to both sides.

2adx−12ad+12ad=bc+12ad

2adx=12ad+bc

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2ad.

2adx/2ad=12ad+bc/2ad

So the answer is x=12ad+bc/2ad.
