Question

What is x-4/3=3x+4/7 what is x expain how you got the answer

Answer 1

`x- (4)/(3) = 3x+ (4)/(7)`
You want to put like terms on like sides.

`x-3x = (4)/(3)+ (4)/(7)`

Then on the right side use common denominator of 21:

`-2x= (28)/(21)+ (12)/(21)`


`-2x = (40)/(21)`
Then divide by -2 and get:

`x = (40)/(21*-2) = (-20)/(21) = -.9524`

Answer 2

x-4/3 = 3x-4/7
First add 4/3 to each side -->x = 3x + 16/21
Then Subract 3x from each side -->-2x = 16/21
Then divide each side by -2 --->x = -3.81
