write an equation with the solution x=20. The equation should have the variable on both sides, a fractional coefficient on the left side, and a fraction anywhere on the right side



Answer :

1/2x+9=2x/2-1. I hope this meets ur criteria. It works and equals 20.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{8}{7}x=\frac{20}{7}+x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

[tex]x=20[/tex]

We need to write an equation that should have the variable on both sides, a fractional coefficient on the left side, and a fraction anywhere on the right side.

Multiply both sides by 1/7 in the given equation.

[tex]\frac{1}{7}\times x=\frac{1}{7}\times 20[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{7}x=\frac{20}{7}[/tex]

Add x on both sides.

[tex]\frac{1}{7}x+x=\frac{20}{7}+x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{7}x=\frac{20}{7}+x[/tex]

This equation have the variable x on both sides, a fractional coefficient 8/7 on the left side, and a fraction 20/7 on the right side.

Therefore the required equation is [tex]\frac{8}{7}x=\frac{20}{7}+x[/tex].
