Solve ((4x-9)/3)=2x 7

Evaluate

\frac{4 x - 9}{3} = 2 x \times 7

Multiply the terms

\frac{4 x - 9}{3} = 14 x

Cross multiply

4 x - 9 = 3 \times 14 x

Simplify the equation

4 x - 9 = 42 x

Move the variable to the left side

4 x - 9 - 42 x = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

- 38 x - 9 = 0

Move the constant to the right side

- 38 x = 0 + 9

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

- 38 x = 9

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

38 x = - 9

Divide both sides

\frac{38 x}{38} = \frac{- 9}{38}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{- 9}{38}

Solution

x = - \frac{9}{38}
