Question

2/4 * x + 1 / 3 * x = x - 8​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{2}{4} \times \frac{x + 1}{3} \times x = x - 8$

$(\frac{2x + 2}{12} )x = x - 8$

$\frac{ {2x + 2x}^{2} }{12} = x - 8$

${2x}^{2} + 2x = 12x - 96$

${2x}^{2} - 10x + 96$

${x}^{2} - 5x + 48 = 0$

Answer 2

Answer:

2/4*x+1/3*x=x-8

2x(x+1)/12=x-8

2x²+2x/12=x-8

2x²+2x=12x-96

2x²-10x+96=0
