Question

Solve following equation. (3x/8) = 6/x

Answer 1

x = ±4

Explanation:

`\sf (3x)/(8) = (6)/(x)`

Use cross multiplication:

3x × x = 6 × 8

3x^2 = 48

Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to isolate x²:

x² = 48/3

x² = 16

Taking the square root of both sides, we have:

x = ±√16

x = ±4

Answer 2

• x = - 4 or x = 4

-------------------------

Solve the equation in below steps:

• 3x/8 = 6/x Cross-multiplication
• 3x*x = 6*8 Cancelling 3 on both sides
• x² = 16
• x = √16 Square root of both sides
• x = ± 4 Answer
