The first step for solving this equation is to determine the defined range.

, x ≠ 1
Remember that when the denominators of both fractions are the same,, you need to set the numerators equal. This will look like the following:

= 5
Take the root of both sides of the equation and remember to use both positive and negative roots.
x +/-
![\sqrt[4]{5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B5%7D)
Separate the solutions.
x =
![\sqrt[4]{5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B5%7D)
, x ≠ 1
x = -
Check if the solution is in the defined range.
x =
x = -
This means that the final solution to your question are the following:
x =
x = -

The common denominator would be 18. So, 5/6 becomes 15/18 and 7/9 becomes 14/18
It seems to me, that if you were to add the price of all three items together, then multiply by 7.5%, you'd have the answer. Remember that 7.5% = .075 ... in other words, that is the number you would multiply the sum of the items by. Does that help?
You have to find the common denominator which is 4 and multiply 26 by 4 which equals 104 add 3 which is 107 and divide by 4
Answer:107/4
