Beth is solving this equation: 1/x + 3 =3/x she says "I can multiply both sides by X and get the linear equation 1 + 3x = 3 whose solution is x = 2/3 ."
which of the following statements makes this a correct argument, or shows that it is in correct? Select all that apply.

a. you cannot multiply both sides by x because you do not know what x is.

b. you can assume x = 0 because both sides are undefined if x = 0

c. after multiplying both sides by X you need to subtract 1 from both sides.

d. the equation is not linear, so you cannot use the methods normally used for solving linear equations.
