Capitolo 2, Problema 25
Solve each equation. Then state whether the equation is an identity, a conditional equation, or an inconsistent equation. 2x/3 = 6 - x/4
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Start with the given equation: \(\frac{2x}{3} = 6 - \frac{x}{4}\).
To eliminate the fractions, find the least common denominator (LCD) of 3 and 4, which is 12. Multiply every term on both sides of the equation by 12 to clear the denominators.
After multiplying, simplify each term: \(12 \times \frac{2x}{3} = 12 \times 6 - 12 \times \frac{x}{4}\) becomes \(8x = 72 - 3x\).
Next, collect all the variable terms on one side by adding \$3x$ to both sides: \(8x + 3x = 72\) which simplifies to \(11x = 72\).
Finally, solve for \(x\) by dividing both sides by 11: \(x = \frac{72}{11}\). After finding \(x\), check the solution by substituting it back into the original equation to determine if it is an identity, conditional, or inconsistent equation.

Types of Equations: Identity, Conditional, and Inconsistent
An identity is true for all values of the variable, a conditional equation is true for specific values, and an inconsistent equation has no solution. Identifying the type depends on the solution set after solving the equation.
