Hi

( 2x + 1 ) / ( 3x - 2 ) = 5/9

Do the cross multiplication,

We get,

9 ( 2x + 1 ) = 5 ( 3x -2 )

18x + 9 = 15x - 10

18x - 15x = -10 - 9

3x = -19

x = - 19 / 3

I hope this helps you.

:)

\frac{(2 x + 1)}{(3 x - 2)}=\frac{5}{9}

To find:

Value of x

Solution:

\frac{(2 x + 1)}{(3 x - 2)}=\frac{5}{9}

Cross multiplying,

We get,

9(2 x + 1)\quad =\quad 5(3 x - 2)

18x + 9 = 15x - 10

18x - 15x = -10 - 9

3x\quad =\quad -19

x\quad =\quad \frac { -19 }{ 3 }
