Answer:

x = -3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

4(3-2x)=15

Distribute

12 -8x = 15

Subtract 12 from each side

12-8x-12 = 15-12

-8x =3

Divide each side by -8

-8x/-8 = 3/-8

x = -3/8

$\text{Solve for x:}\\\\4(3-2x)=15\\\\\text{Use the distributive property}\\\\12-8x=15\\\\\text{Subtract 12 from both sides}\\\\-8x=3\\\\\text{Divide both sides by -8}\\\\\boxed{x=-\frac{3}{8}}$

Solve for x:<br> 1 1/5x−2 1/3<1/7x+1 1/2

Mashcka [7]

Answer: $x$

Step-by-step explanation:

$1\frac{1}{5}x-2\frac{1}{3}$

Add $2\frac{1}{3}$ on both sides and subtract $\frac{1}{7}x$ on both sides to leave x's on the left side and independent values on the right.

$(2\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{7}x) +1\frac{1}{5}x-2\frac{1}{3}$

$1\frac{1}{5}x-\frac{1}{7}x$

Solve the fractions.

$1(\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{7})x$

$1(\frac{(1)(7)-(5)(1)}{(5)(7)} )x$

$1(\frac{7-5}{35} )x$

$1(\frac{2}{35} )x$

$1\frac{2}{35}x$

Convert the mixed fraction $1\frac{2}{35}$ to an improper fraction. You can do this by multiplying 1 times 35 and adding 2.

$\frac{37}{35}x$

Now use the reciprocal (inverse fraction) and multiply on both sides to isolate x.

$(\frac{35}{37}) (\frac{37}{35})x$

$x$
