Answer:

x = 1.875

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Distribute</u>

1/2x + 3/2(x + 1) - 1/4 = 5

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

<u>Step 2:  Combine like terms</u>

4/2x + 6/4 - 1/4 = 5

2x + 5/4 = 5

<u>Step 3:  Subtract 5/4 from both sides</u>

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

2x = 3.75

<u>Step 4:  Divide both sides by 2</u>

2x / 2 = 3.75 / 2

x = 1.875

Answer:  x = 1.875
