Question

What is the answer to
0.75x-0.5=x+1.5

Answer 1

The result for the equation is
`x = -8` .

Explanation:

-Solve the equation:

`0.75x -0.5 =x +1.5`

-Subtract
`x` from
`0.75x` :

`0.75x -0.5-x =x -x+1.5`

`-0.25x -0.5 = 1.5`

-Add both sides by 0.5 :

`-0.25x -0.5 +0.5 =1.5 +0.5`

`-0.25x = 2`

-Divide both sides by 0.25 :

`(-0.25x)/(-0.25) =(2)/(-0.25)`

`x = -8`

So, the answer for the equation is
`x = -8` .
