Question

1/2× - 5 = 10 - 3/4x

Answer 1

x = 12

Explanation:

`(1)/(2) x-5=10-(3)/(4)x`

move all the x variables to one side and all the number to the other

`(1)/(2)x+(3)/(4) x=10+5`

simplify so the fractions have similar denominator

`(2)/(4) x+(3)/(4) x=15`

`(5)/(4) x=15`

multiply each side by 4/5

`x=15*(4)/(5)`

`x=12`
