Question

Help!!

I'm not sure if i'm right...
are these the steps to solve for x?
-5 *4 +3 /2

Answer 1

Yes, you are right!

First of all, we will subtract
`5` from each side.

• 
  `(2x-3)/(4)=5`

Then we multiply both sides by
`4`.

• 
  `2x-3=20`

Then add
`3` to each side.

• 
  `2x=23`

Finally, we divide each side by
`2`.

• 
  `x=(23)/(2)=11.5`

Answer 2

`\boldsymbol{\sf{\cfrac{2x-3}{4}+5=10 }}`

Multiply the two sides of the equation by 4.

2x - 3+20 = 40

Add −3 and 20 to get 17.

2x+17 = 40

It remains 17 on both sides.

2x = 40−17

Subtract 17 of 40 to get 23.

2x = 23

Divide both sides by 2.

`\boldsymbol{\sf{x=(23)/(2) \ \ \longmapsto \ Answer }}`
