Answer: Answer: x=-56

Step-by-step explanation: Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "0.5" was replaced by "(5/10)". 2 more similar replacement(s)

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

(75/100)*(x+20)-(2+(5/10)*(x-2))=0

1

Simplify —

2

75 1

(———•(x+20))-(2+(—•(x-2))) = 0

100 2

75 (x - 2)

(——— • (x + 20)) - (2 + ———————) = 0

100 2

3.1 Adding a fraction to a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 2 as the denominator :

2 2 • 2

2 = — = —————

1 2

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
