Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x - 3/4 = 3/8 - 5/8x

The LCD is 8. Lets change every fraction to a denominator of 8.

4/8x - 6/8 = 3/8 - 5/8x

Now multiply both sides by 8.

4x - 6 = 3 - 5x

Add 5x to both sides. Add 6 to both sides.

9x = 9

Divide both sides by 9.

x = 1

Answer: x= 9/7

Step-by-step explanation: the numbers must have a common denominator which is 8. Multiply 1/2 by 4/4. Multiply -3/4 by 2/2. Since all numbers have 8 as their denominator, in parentheses, divide by 8. Then you will get 2x-6=3-5x. Add 5x to both sides. Then you will get 7x-6=3. Add 6 to both sides. Then you will get 7x=9. Divide by 7 to both sides. x= 9/7.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

600 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If we write both situations as an equation, we get:

y1 = 24 + 0.15x

<em>y1 </em><em>:</em><em> </em><em>total </em><em>cost </em><em>paid </em><em>in </em><em>first </em><em>plan</em>

<em>x </em><em>:</em><em> </em><em>total minutes </em><em>of </em><em>calls</em>

y2 = 0.19x

<em>y2 </em><em>:</em><em> </em><em>total </em><em>cost </em><em>in </em><em>second </em><em>plan</em>

<em>x:</em><em> </em><em>total </em><em>min</em><em>utes </em><em>of </em><em>call</em>

We are now looking for the situation where the total cost in the two plans is equal, so

y1 = y2

this gives

24 + 0.15x = 0.19x

<=> 0.04x = 24

<=> x = 600
