Question

PLEASE HELP!! Which steps can be used to solve 6/7x+1/2=7/8 for x? Check all that apply. A. Divide both sides of the equation by 7/8 B. subtract 1/2 from both sides of the equation C. use the LCD of 2 to combine like terms D. divide both sides by 6/7 E. multiply both sides by 7/6

Answer 1

BDE

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct options are:

B. subtract 1/2 from both sides of the equation.

D. Divide both sided by 6/7

E. multiply both sides by 7/6

Explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

`(6)/(7)x+(1)/(2)=(7)/(8)`

Subtract 1/2 from both sides of the equation.

`(6)/(7)x+(1)/(2)-(1)/(2)=(7)/(8)-(1)/(2)`

`(6)/(7)x=(3)/(8)`

Multiply both the sides by 7/6.

`(6)/(7)x* (7)/(6)=(3)/(8)* (7)/(6)`

`x=(7)/(16)`

Now consider the provided options.

Hence, the correct options are:

B. subtract 1/2 from both sides of the equation.

D. Divide both sided by 6/7

E. multiply both sides by 7/6
