Answer:

{A) X=5} {B) X=2.75}

Explanation:

A) (2)4x-1/2=x+7(2) - multiply each side by denominator

4x-1=x+14

-x + 1 -x +1

3x=15

÷3. ÷3

x=5

B) (2)3x+2=2x+13/2(2)

6x+2=2x+13

-2x -2. -2x -2

Answer:

x = 7.5 , x = 1

Explanation:

(a)


(4x-1)/(2) = x + 7 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

4x - 1 = 2(x + 7)

4x - 1 = 2x + 14 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x - 1 = 14 ( add 1 to both sides )

2x = 15 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 7.5

(b)

3x + 2 =
(2x+13)/(3) ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

3(3x + 2) = 2x + 13

9x + 6 = 2x + 13 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

7x + 6 = 13 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

7x = 7 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 1
