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

dexar [7]
<span><span>1.       </span>Lucas Lives 5/8 miles from their schools
=> 5/8 miles is equals to:
=> 5 / 8 = 0.625 miles.
Now, the problem says that Kenny lives twice as far as Lucas from their school.
Therefore, we only need to multiply the total number of miles of Lucas distance from house to school to be able to get what is the distance of Kenny’s house to school
=> 0.625 * 2 = 1.25 miles or 1 and ¼ miles.</span>

What is the correct simplified version of the expression 32x + 8 - 34x?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

  -2x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms involving x are "like" terms, so their coefficients are added when the terms are combined.

  = 32x -34x +8

  = (32 -34)x +8 . . . . . x is factored out according to the distributive property

  = -2x +8

What equation represents a line that when if graphed, passes through the points (0, -1) and
Keith_Richards [23]
Y= 2x-1
Explanation: First, you find slope. If the first point it x-axis point is 0 and the second x-axis point is 1 then you already know the answer is over 1, so you have to figure out how many up you are going on the y-axis from -1 to 1. Which is 2, so your slope is 2/1 or just 2. Next, you find your y-intercept, which is where the line crosses the y-axis, and the easy way to find this is finding what y is equal to when x is equal to 0, in the problem you are told (0, -1) as a point, so they gave you your y-intercept right there, which is -1. Finally you right the equation in slip intercept form (y= mx+b) which is y= 2x-1
