How do you get x by itself? Subtract 2 from both sides
Yes you can answer it! -- Step 1. 2x(6)=4 Step 2. 2x=4/6 Step 3. 2x=0.6 (repeating) Step 4. x=0.6 (repeating)/ 2 Step 5. x=0.3 (repeating)
Well, that's one method to solve the quadratic equation. Here is an example (using the symbol "^" for power): solve x^2 - 5x + 6 = 0 Step 1: Convert the equation to a form in which the right side is equal to zero. (Already done in this example.) Step 2: Factor the left side. In this case, (x - 3) (x - 2) = 0 Step 3: Use the fact that if a product is zero, at least one of its factors must be zero. This lets you convert the equation to two equations; x - 3 = 0 OR x - 2 = 0 Step 4: Solve each of the two equations.
Check your work by substituting the answer, 5, into the equation for x. Does 2 + 5 = 7? Yes, so the correct answer is x = 5.
2/12 = m/18 ie 12 x m = 2 x 18 ...
