Answer:

Value for x cannot be deduced

Explanation:

To solve this question we will have to open the bracket first...we will solve using bodmas rule

1/2(10x+5)-3/2=2x+6+3x

Open the bracket

5x+5/2-3/2=2x+6+3x

Let's collect the like terms

5x-2x-3x=6-5/2+3/2

Lcm for the right side is 2

0=12-5+3/2

0=10/2

0=5

Therefore the value for x cannot be deduced due to the fact that x has been cancelled when solving
