Determine whether or not the two equations below have the same solution. In two or more complete sentences, explain your rationale.


2/3x + 3/4 = 8 8x=87

Verified Answer :

No they don't. 2/3=.67, 3/4=.75. 8-.75=7.25. 7.25/.67=10.82.... 87/8=10.88 :) hope this helps

Answer:

The two equation have the same solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equations.

\(\frac{2}{3}x + \frac{3}{4} = 8\) ......(1)

\(8x=87\).......(2)

We need to determine whether or not the two equations below have the same solution.

Solve the first equation.

\(\frac{2}{3}x + \frac{3}{4} = 8\)

Multiply both the sides by 12.

\(2x(4) + 3(3)=96\)

\(8x + 9=96\)

\(8x=96-9\)

\(8x=87\)

Here we can observe that after simplifying the first equation both the equation becomes the same.

Hence, the two equation have the same solutions.
