Question

solve the following equation 3 by X + 1 is equal to 5 by 2 X linear equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

  x  = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

A by B is simply $\frac{A}{B}$

    3 by x + 1 is $\frac{3}{x + 1}$  

    5 by 2x is $\frac{5}{2x}$  

So, the equality is ;

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

Cross multiply and solve the inequality;

         3(2x) = 5(x + 1)

         6x  = 5x + 5

          6x -5x = 5

              x  = 5
