what is the answer 6(4x-1)=12(2x+3)?

Answer 1

Double check your math problem....make sure there isn't a negative in front of 6 / 12 /4x or 2x......

This equation turns out to be 24x - 6 = 24x + 36

Let's try this for Sh+ts and Giggles....

24x - 6 = 24x + 36
_______________
24

x - 6/24 = x + 36/24

x - 1/4 = x + 3/2 Hmmm you still need a differentiation to make this work.....

Obviously there is no secret trick your teacher is pulling on you, so the answer is 0x = 42 THEN you must apply what the teacher taught you this week about 0x .....Do you put a slash thru your = sign? Or do you say it's an "imaginary number" kinda like i or j squared = - 1

I don't know for sure, but it's been a recent lesson and the teacher is TESTING YOU for the proper response....

Answer 2

You have to simplify the equation, like this:
6(4x-1) = 12(2x+3)
24x-6=24x+36
0x=42
x= infinity

Answer 3

6(4x-1)=12(2x+3)
Take the multiplier up front through the entire equation in parethesis.

24x-6=24x+36
Move the x's to one side and the known numbers to the other side.
24x-24x=6+36
0=42
Well, we know 0 is not equal to 42, so I think the equation is written incorrectly.

Answer 4

I'll tell you how to do it. You multiply the 6 and the 12 through there respective parenthesis. Then you add/subtract common factors. The answer should look like this:
24x-6= 24x+ 36

unfortunately you can't find the answer to that because nothing can equal 0x.....

Answer 5

im not sure but i think that there is no answer (a false equation) but im not sure.

here is my work:

6(4x-1)=12(2x+3)
24x-6=24x+36
0=42. false.

Answer 6

42

Answer 7

-24=72

Answer 8

0=9 hahha thats a messed up problem

Answer 9

24x-6=24x+36
0x=42
42/0= undefined
