2x-1/3x=12

Solution for 2x-1/3x=12 equation:

2x-1/3x=12

We move all terms to the left:

2x-1/3x-(12)=0


Domain of the equation: 3x!=0

x!=0/3

x!=0

x∈R


We multiply all the terms by the denominator


2x*3x-12*3x-1=0

Wy multiply elements

6x^2-36x-1=0

a = 6; b = -36; c = -1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -362-4·6·(-1)
Δ = 1320
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{1320}=\sqrt{4*330}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{330}=2\sqrt{330}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-36)-2\sqrt{330}}{2*6}=\frac{36-2\sqrt{330}}{12}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-36)+2\sqrt{330}}{2*6}=\frac{36+2\sqrt{330}}{12}
