Question

Solve (2x-3)/(4x+5) = 1/3​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{(2x - 3)}{(4x + 5)} = \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ = 4x + 5 = 3(2x - 3) \\ \\ = 4x + 5 = 6x - 9 \\ \\ = 5 + 9 = 6x - 4x \\ \\ = 14 = 2x \\ \\ = x = 7$

Answer 2

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-Step Solution:

$\frac{2x-3}{4x+5} = \frac{1}{3}$

Cross multiply:

3(2x-3) = 4x+5

6x-9 = 4x+5

2x=14

x=7
