Answer:

a) ³⁵/₁₃        b)- ⁸/₃

Step-by-step explanation:

   a) 5x + ⁷/₂ = ³ˣ/₂ - 14                                 Add 14 to both sides

  • 5x + ⁷/₂ + 14 = ³ˣ/₂                                Subtract 5x to both sides
  • ⁷/₂  + 14 = ³ˣ/₂ - 5x                                Convert both sides to improper fraction
  • = ⁷/₂  + ¹⁴/₁ = ³ˣ/₂ - ⁵ˣ/₁                            LCM = 2
  • = ⁷/₂  + ²⁸/₂ = ³ˣ/₂ - ¹⁰ˣ/₂                         Simplify each
  • ³⁵/₂ = ¹³ˣ/₂                                              Multiply both sides by 2
  • 35 = 13x
  • x = ³⁵/₁₃
