Multiply the equation:
The solution set is the same, because multiplying both sides of an equation by a non-zero number doesn't change the solution set. In fact, if you rewrite the equation as
Multiplying this by 3 (or whatever number, for all it matters) gives
Now, a product is zero if and only if at least one of the factor is zero. So, either or
Since the first is clearly impossible, the second one must be true, which is the original equation.
1.) 3/4
2.) It snowed 1/4 more on Tuesday than it did on Monday.

Answer:
10. First you multiply both sides by 3, making it 2x + 5 = 24
Then you subtract 5 from both sides making it 2x = 19
You dive both sides by 2 making x = 9.5
The answer is x = 9.5
11. First you need to find how much you need to pay each year. 12,000 x 0.05
you can make it easier by changing it to 120 x 5 = 600
You need to pay that for three years so 600 x 3 = 1800
Plus you need to pay the original money. 12,000 + 1,800 = 13,800
The answer is $13,800
12. First you change kilometers into centimeters. 172 km is 172,000 meters. 172,000 meters is 17,200,000
Then, you need to do 17,200,000 ÷ 500,000 but you can make it simple and do 172 ÷ 5 = 34.4
The answer is 34.4 cm
