Question

Solve the following equation 3 by X + 1 is equal to 5 by 2 X linear equation​

Answer 1

x = 5

Explanation:

A by B is simply
`(A)/(B)`

3 by x + 1 is
`(3)/(x + 1)`

5 by 2x is
`(5)/(2x)`

So, the equality is ;

`(3)/(x + 1)` =
`(5)/(2x)`

Cross multiply and solve the inequality;

3(2x) = 5(x + 1)

6x = 5x + 5

6x -5x = 5

x = 5
