Question

if 2x+ 1 /2x +3 = 3/8 , then x = ?
​Option: A : 1/4 b: 1/3 c : 1/6 d :1/2​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+1/2x+3=3/8

cross multiplication...

(2x+1)8=(2x+3)3

16x+8=6x+9

16x-6x=9-8

10x=1

x=1/10

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

8(2x + 1 ) = 3(2x + 3 )

16x + 8 = 6x + 9

16x - 6x = 9-8

10x = 1

x = 1/10
