Solve the equation 3/4x + 3 -2x = -1/4+1/2x+5 If necessary: Combine Terms
Apply Properties: Add, Subtract, Multiply, Divide

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

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

3/4x + 3 -2x = 19/4 + 1/2x

3x + 12 - 8x = 19 + 2x

-5x + 12 = 19 + 2x

-5x - 2x + 12 = 19

-7x = 19 - 12

-7x = 7

x = -1

(x+3)(x+7)

step-by-step explanation:

cross multiplying, we get :

⇒ (3) × (5) = (9) × (x)

⇒ 15 = 9x
