Q:

Solve 1/36 = 6x−3. for Algebra 2

Accepted Solution

A:
To solve the equation we proceed as follows:
1/36=6x-3
multiplying both sides of the equation we obtain:
36×1/36=(6x-3)×36
simplifying we obtain
1=216x-108
solving for x we put like terms together
1+108=216x
109=216x
dividing both sides by 216 we get
109/216=(216x)/216
simplifying gives us:
x=109/216
