Answer 1

x = 2

Explanation:

7
`(1)/(3)` x - 5
`(1)/(2)` = 4x + 1
`(1)/(6)` ( change mixed numbers to improper fractions )

`(22)/(3)` x -
`(11)/(2)` = 4x +
`(7)/(6)`

multiply through by 6 ( the LCM of 3, 2, 6 ) to clear the fractions

44x - 33 = 24x + 7 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

20x - 33 = 7 ( add 33 to both sides )

20x = 40 ( divide both sides by 20 )

x = 2
