Answer:
x= 5.8125
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: [tex]\frac{12x-7}{4} =\frac{5x+18}{3}[/tex]
Since we have one fraction equal to another fraction, we can cross multiply.
(12x -7)(3)= 4(5x +18)
Expand:
36x -21= 20x +72
Bring all the x terms to one side, constant to the other:
36x -20x= 72 +21
Simplify:
16x= 93
Divide both sides by 16:
[tex]x= \frac{93}{16}[/tex]
x= 5.8125
