QuestionSolve the linear equation: 6z44+138=12z+18\frac{6 z-4}{4}+\frac{13}{8}=\frac{12 z+1}{8}.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given a linear equation in the form of fractions. . The variable in the equation is zz.
3. We are asked to solve for zz.

STEP 2

First, let's simplify the equation by multiplying each term by8 to eliminate the denominators.
8×(6z44)+8×(138)=8×(12z+18)8 \times \left(\frac{6 z-4}{4}\right) +8 \times \left(\frac{13}{8}\right) =8 \times \left(\frac{12 z+1}{8}\right)

STEP 3

implify each term.
2×(6z)+13=12z+12 \times (6 z-) +13 =12 z+1

STEP 4

Expand the left side of the equation.
12z8+13=12z+112 z -8 +13 =12 z +1

STEP 5

implify the left side of the equation.
12z+5=12z+112 z +5 =12 z +1

STEP 6

Subtract 12z12 z from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable zz on one side.
12z+512z=12z+112z12 z +5 -12 z =12 z +1 -12 z

STEP 7

implify both sides of the equation.
5=15 =1

STEP 8

At this point, we see that the equation is not true. This implies that the original equation has no solution.
The solution to the equation is that there is no solution.
