Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross-multiplying means multiplying the numerator of one side by the denominator of the other side.
So, let's multiply the sides:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{2x+1}{3}=\frac{x+2}{2} \\ 2\cdot(2x+1)=3\cdot(x+2) \end{gathered}[/tex]
Now, we can solve each side:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4x+2=3x+6 \\ 4x-3x=6-2 \\ 1x=4 \\ x=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]
So, x = 4.
