Question

Solve for x: 7x-3/2 = -2/3​

Answer 1

5/42

Explanation:

7x - 3/2 = -2/3 (Take -3/2 to the other side so it becomes +3/2)

7x = -2/3 +3/2 (Add the two fractions)

7x = 5/6 (7 is taken to the other side so 5/6 ÷ 7)

x = 5/42

Answer 2

Hence, the value of x ix 5/21.

★ Solution (1) :-

`\sf \leadsto (7x - 3)/(2) = (-2)/(3)`

`\sf \leadsto 3(7x - 3) = -2(2)`

`\sf \leadsto 21x - 9 = -4`

`\sf \leadsto 21x = -4 + 9`

`\sf \leadsto 21x = 5`

`\sf \leadsto x = (5)/(21)`
