Question

Solve the following equations,8(x+3)=12/7(x-5).​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey mate, here is your

solution

$8(x + 3) = \frac{12}{7(x - 5)} \\ 8x + 24 = \frac{12}{7x - 5} \\ (8x + 24)(7x - 5) = 12 \\ 56 {x}^{2} + 128x - 120 = 0 \\ 7 {x}^{2} + 16 - 15 = 0 \\ (7x - 5)(x + 3) = 0$

Therefore,

$x = \frac{5}{7} or - 3$

Hope it helps...
