Looking at this triangle, we can see that is a form of a 45, 45, 90 triangle
This would mean that 2x-24=x-2
Solve: 2x-24=x-2
subtract x from both sides and add 24 to both sides...
x=22

Answer:

<h3>The best interpretation of this equation 4x=3x is that the equation has no solution</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Kate begins solving the equation

$\frac{2}{3}(6x-3)=\frac{1}{2}(6x-4)$

<h3>To find the best interpretation of the given equation :</h3><h3>Katie's steps are</h3>

$\frac{2}{3}(6x-3)=\frac{1}{2}(6x-4)$
$\frac{2}{3}(3(2x-1))=\frac{1}{2}((2(3x-4))$
$2(2x-1)=1(3x-2)$
$2(2x)+2(-1)=1(3x)+1(-2)$
$4x-2=3x-2$

When she adds 2 to both sides, the equation becomes

4x-2+2=3x-2+2
4x=3x

Therefore $4\neq 3$

<h3>Therefore the given equation has no solution </h3><h3>The best interpretation of this equation 4x=3x is that the equation has no solution.</h3><h3>Therefore the option no solution is correct</h3>
