Question

What is the value of x in the equation 3/4(1/4x+8)-(1/2x+2)=3/8(4-x)-1/4x ?

Answer 1

Answer: x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 (x/4 + 8) - x/2 +2 = 3/8 (4-x) - x/4

3x/16 + 6 - x = 3/2 - 3x/8 - x/4

collect like term

3x/16 - x+ 3x/8 +x/4 = 3/2 -6

3x-16x+6x +4x / 16 = 3-12 / 2

-3x/16 = -9/2

cross multiply

-6x = -144

Divide bothside by -6

-6x/-6 = -144/6

x = 24
