So you have common denominators already so you . should be set to start fully solving for x:

add 1/4 on both sides

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

subtract 3x on both sides

2x=1

divide by 2 on both sides.

x=1/2

hope this helps!

rememer that you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

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

minus 3x both sides

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

2x-1/4=0-5/4

2x-1/4=-5/4

add 1/4 to both sides

2x+1/4-1/4=1/4-5/4

2x+0=-4/4

2x=-1

divide both sides by 2

(2x)/2=-1/2

x(2/2)=-1/2

x(1)=-1/2

x=-1/2

Answer:

Answer:

X l Y

-2 l 4

-1 l 5

0 l 6

1 l 7

2 l 8

Step-by-step explanation:

X  l Y

-2 l - (-2) + y =6 => y = 6 - 2=> y = 4

-1 l - (-1) + y =6 => y = 6 - 1=> y = 5

0 l - (0) + y =6 => y = 6 + 0=> y = 6

1 l - (1) + y =6 => y = 6 +1 => y = 7

2 l - (2) + y =6 => y = 6 + 2=> y = 8

Note: - (-a) + b = a + b

 - (a) + b = - a + b

Answer is 7/10 because you need the same denominator so you multiply 1/2 by 5 both top and bottom then multiply 1/5 by 2 both top and bottom and then add numerator

Answer:

y = 7, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

11y + 13 = 90

11y = (90 - 13)

11y = 77

y = 7

2x + 6 = 20 (because 20 is half of 40)

2x = (20 - 6)

2x = 14

x=7
