Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
because all top numbers can go into bottom numbers.
Solving the expression
we get: ![x=\frac{35}{2}\,\,or\,\,x=17.5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D%5Cfrac%7B35%7D%7B2%7D%5C%2C%5C%2Cor%5C%2C%5C%2Cx%3D17.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving the expression: ![\frac{0.5x+7}{3}=\frac{21}{4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B0.5x%2B7%7D%7B3%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B21%7D%7B4%7D)
Solving by cross multiplying:
![\frac{0.5x+7}{3}=\frac{21}{4}\\(0.5x+7)*4=21*3\\Simplifying:\\2x+28=63\\Adding\,\,-28\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides:\\2x+28-28=63-28\\2x=35\\Divide\,\,both\,\,sides\,\,by\,\,2\\\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{35}{2}\\x=\frac{35}{2}\,\,or\,\,x=17.5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B0.5x%2B7%7D%7B3%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B21%7D%7B4%7D%5C%5C%280.5x%2B7%29%2A4%3D21%2A3%5C%5CSimplifying%3A%5C%5C2x%2B28%3D63%5C%5CAdding%5C%2C%5C%2C-28%5C%2C%5C%2Con%5C%2C%5C%2Cboth%5C%2C%5C%2Csides%3A%5C%5C2x%2B28-28%3D63-28%5C%5C2x%3D35%5C%5CDivide%5C%2C%5C%2Cboth%5C%2C%5C%2Csides%5C%2C%5C%2Cby%5C%2C%5C%2C2%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B2x%7D%7B2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B35%7D%7B2%7D%5C%5Cx%3D%5Cfrac%7B35%7D%7B2%7D%5C%2C%5C%2Cor%5C%2C%5C%2Cx%3D17.5)
So, solving the expression
we get: ![x=\frac{35}{2}\,\,or\,\,x=17.5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D%5Cfrac%7B35%7D%7B2%7D%5C%2C%5C%2Cor%5C%2C%5C%2Cx%3D17.5)
