Answer:

x=-12

Explanation:

Start by getting all of the x values on one side and other to the other.

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

Now simplify. Because 1/3 and 3/4 do not have the same denominator, find the least common factor between 3 and 4 (which is 12) and make the fractions have denominators of 12.

4/12x-9/12x=5

-5/12x=5

x=5*(12/-5)=60/-5=-12

x=-12
