54/74-27/37 reduced to lowest terms

Funny, this equals zero!

if you divice numerator and denominator of the first term by 2, you get 27/37 as well. And 27/37 - 27/37 = 0

the answer

b. they are parallel and will never intersect.

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

2

x=5
