Given that a, b, and c are non-zero real numbers and a + b ≠ 0, solve for x, ax + bx - c = 0.
Solution:
Given, ax + bx – c = 0
By adding c on both sides(using addition property of equality)
ax + bx - c + c = 0 + c
ax + bx = c
Taking the common factor out we get,
(a + b)x = c
We use the division property of equality to solve for x.
Divide both sides by (a + b):
x = c/(a + b)
As we know that a,b and c are non-zero real numbers.
Also a + b ≠ 0.
Thus, x = c/(a + b)
Given that a, b, and c are non-zero real numbers and a + b ≠ 0, solve for x, ax + bx - c = 0.
Summary:
The value of x is c/(a + b).
