Solve:[(5(1 – x)) + (3(1 + x))/ (1 – 2x)] = 8

1.	Solve:[(5(1 – x)) + (3(1 + x))/ (1 – 2x)] = 8
Answer» We have, [(5(1 – x)) + (3(1 + x))/ (1 – 2x)] = 8 By cross multiplication, we get (5(1 – x)) + (3(1 + x)) = 8 × (1 – 2x) 5 – 5x + 3 + 3x = 8 – 16 x 8 – 2x = 8 – 16x Transposing 8 to RHS it becomes – 8 and -16x to LHS it becomes 16x. 16x – 2x = 8 – 8 14x = 0 x = 0/14 x = 0

Answer»

We have,

[(5(1 – x)) + (3(1 + x))/ (1 – 2x)] = 8

By cross multiplication, we get

(5(1 – x)) + (3(1 + x)) = 8 × (1 – 2x)

5 – 5x + 3 + 3x = 8 – 16 x

8 – 2x = 8 – 16x

Transposing 8 to RHS it becomes – 8 and -16x to LHS it becomes 16x.

16x – 2x = 8 – 8

14x = 0

x = 0/14

x = 0
