First you would find that not all the units are the same in this problem, so you convert yards to feet. So 4 yards = 12 feet.

The proportion you would make would be x/12 = 2/1

What is 1/2(4x+14)=2(x-7)
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(4x+14)=2(x-7)

Multiply both sides by 2.

4x + 14 = 4(x - 7)

4x + 14 = 4x - 28

Subtract 4x from both sides.

14 = -28

Since 14 = -28 is a false statement, there is no solution for this equation.

Answer: no solution
