Question

3/4x + x/8=6 what does x equal

Answer 1

$\frac{3}{4x} + \frac{x}{8}=6$

$\frac{8*3+4x*x}{8*4x} =6$

$8*3+4x*x=6*8*4x$

$24+4 x^{2} =192x$

$4 x^{2} -192x+24=0$

$x^{2} -48x+6=0$

The two roots are:
$x= (\frac{48+ \sqrt{ 48^{2} -4*1*6 } }{2*1}) and (\frac{48- \sqrt{ 48^{2} -4*1*6 } }{2*1} )$

$x = (24+ \sqrt{570})$ and $24- \sqrt{570}$

Answer 2

3x/4+x/8=6
6x+x/8=6
7x=48
x=48/7
