Question

$x + 1 \div 2 + x - 1 \div 4 = 2x + 5 \div 8$
​

Answer 1

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+1)/2 + (x-1)/4 = (2x+5)/8

(x+1)/2 = (2x + 2)/4

therefore [(2x + 2)+(x-1)]/4 = (2x+5)/8

= (2x + 2)+(x-1) = [(2x+5)/8]*4 = (2x+5)/2

3x+1 = (2x+5)/2

6x+2 = 2x+5

4x+2 = 5

4x = 3

x = 3/4
