Answer:


(3)/(2) - 3.5 + 2y

Explanation:

Aight,

We first take away brackets and add some like terms


(7)/(4)x-5 +2y-(-1)/(4)x+5

We do it again:


(3)/(2) -8.5+2y+5

Again


(3)/(2) - 3.5 + 2y

Done.

Hopefully that solves your problem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Remove Parentheses


=(7)/(4)x-5+2y-3.5-(1)/(4)x+5

Step 2: Group like terms


=(7)/(4)x-(1)/(4)x+2y-5-3.5+5

Step 3: Multiply and Add/Subtract the numbers


=(3x)/(2)+2y-3.5

Step 4: Convert fraction into a decimal form


(3)/(2)=1.5


=1.5x+2y-3.5

Explanation in words:

- To solve this equation, the first step is to remove the Parentheses from the equation.

- To solve this equation, the second step is to Group the equation together.

- To solve this equation, the third step is to Multiply and Add/Subtract the numbers in the equation

- To solve this equation, the last step is to convert the fraction into a decimal form and the answer is = 1.5 but when converted it is 1.5x + 2y - 3.5

Answer:


1.5x+2y-3.5

and


(3)/(2)=1.5

Hope this helps.
