Step-by-step explanation:
<u>To make both equivalent</u>.
For equation (I) multiply all through by 4
Now, from
x - 1/2 = x/4 + 3
it becomes
4(x) - 4(1/2) = 4(x/4) + 4(3)
--> 4x - 2 = x + 12.
This is your new equation (I) or you can call it equation (iii).
For equation (ii) multiply all through by 1 to make it equivalent to your new equation (I) or eqn (iii) if you wish.
Now from
4x - 2= x + 12
it becomes
1(4x) - 1(2) = 1(x) + 1(12)
--> 4x - 2 = x + 12
This is your new equation (ii) or you can call it equation (iv)
Therefore;
Equation 1 has to be multiplied by 4 and Equation 2 by 1 to make both equivalent.
New equation 1 is 4x-2=x+12
New equation 2 is 4x-2=x+12.

Answer:
thats right
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 3 = 3x + 11
• first put all the x-values on one side and the rest on the other
Remember: when the number moves to the other side of the equal sign the sign (+ OR - switches. For ex: the 3 on the left becomes negative when moved to the right side of the equal sign)
5x - 3x = 11 - 3
• subtract left and right sides separately
2x = 8
• divide both sides by 2 to solve for x
2x/2 = 8/2
x = 4 (final answer)
