Answer: I got the answer of -7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
8
x
+3=
1
x
+1
Multiply all terms by x and cancel:
8+3x=1+1x
3x+8=x+1(Simplify both sides of the equation)
3x+8−x=x+1−x(Subtract x from both sides)
2x+8=1
2x+8−8=1−8(Subtract 8 from both sides)
2x=−7
2x
2
=
−7
2
(Divide both sides by 2)
x=
−7
2

Answer: -7/2
Using multiplication, the equation has the solution is -7/2.
The multiplication is "the process of multiplying one number is to multiply to its certain number of times".
According to the question,
[tex]\frac{8}{x} + 3 = \frac{1}{x} +1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{(8+3x)}{x} = \frac{1+x}{x}[/tex]
8 + 3x = 1 + x [By cancel 'x' on both denominator]
8 - 1 = x - 3x
7 = -2x
x = - [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
Hence, using multiplication the equation has the solution is -7/2.
