Question

The solution to the following equation is x=0

6x+7= 1/2x+7

True
or
False
(The 1/2 is a fraction)

Answer 1

True

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if that is the solution, lets solve the equation.

6x + 7 = 1/2x + 7

Subtract 1/2x from each side to bring it to the right

6x - 1/2x + 7 = 7

Subtract 7 from each side to bring it to the left

6x - 1/2x = 7 - 7

Simplify it

5.5x = 0

Divide 5.5 from each side to leave x alone.

x = 0

The answer is true. I hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:
If X=0 then that would make the problem 6(0)+7=1/2(0)+7. Anything multiplied by 0 is 0 so that would cancel the 6 and the 1/2. That means that you would be left with 7=7
