Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2/3(3/4x-3/2) = 1/2x-1
(2x+1) - (x+3/2) = x - 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Distribute 2/3 to both 3/4x and -3/2
2/3(3/4x) = 6/12x which can be simplified as 1/2x
2/3(-3/2) = -6/6 which simplifies to -1
2/3(3/4x-3/2) = 1/2x-1
2) (2x+1) - (x+3/2) combine like terms
2x-x = x
1 - 3/2= 1- 1 1/2 ( change 3/2 into an improper fraction. 2 goes into 3 one time with one left over. Place the “leftover” back on top of the original denominator of 2)
1- 1 1/2 = -1/2, so
(2x+1) - (x+3/2) = x - 1/2
