Question

solve the following equation 3-5x/7-x/4=1/2+5-4x/8​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$3 - \frac{5x}{7} - \frac{x}{4} = \frac{1}{2} + 5 - \frac{4x}{8} \\ 3 + 5 - \frac{5x}{7} - \frac{x}{4} - \frac{1}{2} + \frac{x}{2} \\ 8 - \frac{1}{2} - \frac{5x}{7} + \frac{x}{4 } = 0$

$\frac{15}{2} - \frac{13x}{28} = 0\\ \frac{210 - 13x}{28} = 0 \\ x = \frac{210}{13} = 16.15$
