Question

3-5x-x/4=1/2+5-4x/8​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -10/19

Step-by-step explanation:

3 - 5x - x/4 = 1/2 + 5 - 4x/8

(12 - 20x - x)/4 = (4 + 40 - 4x)/8

(12 - 21x)/4 = (44 - 4x)/8

(12 - 21x) = (44 - 4x)/2

2(12 - 21x) = 44 - 4x

24 - 42x = 44 - 4x

24 = 44 - 4x + 42x

24 = 44 + 38x

38x = 24 - 44

38x = - 20

x = -20/38

x = -10/19
