Answer:

C

Explanation:

Evaluating the options :

Option A

⇒ 5/2x + 7/2 = 3/4x + 14

⇒ 2.5x - 0.75x = 14 - 3.5

⇒ 1.75x = 10.5

⇒ x = 6

No ×

===========================================================

Option B

⇒ 5/4x - 9 = 3/2x - 12

⇒ 1.5x - 1.25x = -9 + 12

⇒ 0.25x = 3

⇒ x = 12

No ×

=========================================================

Option C

⇒ 5/4x - 2 = 3/2x - 4

⇒ 1.5x - 1.25x = -2 + 4

⇒ 0.25x = 2

⇒ x = 8
