(3x-5)/4 =(2x-8)/3

\frac{3 x - 5}{4} = \frac{2 x - 8}{3}

x = - 17

Solution steps

\frac{3 x - 5}{4} = \frac{2 x - 8}{3}

Apply fraction cross multiply: if

\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}

then

a \cdot d = b \cdot c

(3 x - 5) \cdot 3 = 4 (2 x - 8)

Expand

(3 x - 5) \cdot 3 : 9 x - 15

Expand

4 (2 x - 8) : 8 x - 32

9 x - 15 = 8 x - 32

Move

15

to the right side

9 x = 8 x - 17

Move

8 x

to the left side

x = - 17

e = (10 \cdot 1.5) - (10 \cdot 1.5) \cdot 0.06

3 x + 2 (x - 1) = 6 x - 9

13.68 = 0.13 + x

\frac{8 ^{3}}{8 ^{5}}

- 7 x + 5 > 33
