Question

Simplify the expression. (7x + 1/2) + (4x − 3 1/2)

Answer 1

Hi there!

To solve this problem, we need to add the values of x together and find the answer.

(7x + 1/2) + (4x - 3 1/2)
= 7x + 4x + 1/2 - 3 1/2
= 11x - 3

So, your answer is 11x - 3.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Hi there!


`(7x + (1)/(2) ) + (4x - 3 (1)/(2) )`
First we work out the parenthesis.


`7x + (1)/(2) + 4x - 3 (1)/(2)`
Now collect the terms.


`11x - 3`
And there's your solution.
