Question

What is the solution to the equation ×+×?

1/4x-1/8=7/8+1/2x
Answer are
X=-5
X=-4
X=4
X=5

Answer 1

X=-4

1/4x-1/2x=7/8+1/8
1/4x-2/4x=8/8
-1/4x=1
1/4x=-1
X=-1x4/1
X=-4

Answer 2

Answer: -4

Explanation:

`(1)/(4)x-(1)/(8)=(7)/(8)+(1)/(2)x`

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 8,

`2x-1=7+4x\\\\-1=7+2x\\\\-8=2x\\\\x=\boxed{-4}`
