Question

Select the correct answer. Solve the equation for x in terms of c. 2/3(cx + 1/2) - 1/4 = 5/2​

Answer 1

x = 29/8c

Explanation:

2/3(cx+1/2) - 1/4+ 1/4 = 5/2+1/4

2/3(cx+1/2) = 11/4

1/3(cx+1/2) = 11/4 / 2

cx/3 + 1/2/3 = 11/4/2

cx/3 + 1/2*3 = 11/4/2

cx/3 + 1/6 = 11/4/2

cx/3 + 1/6 = 11/4*2

cx/3 + 1/6 = 11/8

cx/3 = 11/8 - 1/6

cx/3 = 29/24

cx = 29/24 * 3

x = 29/8 / c

x = 29/8c
