Part 1: 4x + 7 = 3(2x - 5) 

4x+7=6x-15 

7=6x-15-4x

 

7=2x-15 

7+15=2x 

22=2x 

22=2x / 2 

x=11 

Part 2: Sam is not correct because <span>he messed up the second step. He added 2x on both sides to get 7x, instead he should have subtracted. </span>

Answer:

  • 3/4 - 1/4 = 1/2
  • 5/8 - 1/8 = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

You can pick just about any fraction with an odd numerator and find another at distance 1/2 from it.

For example, 5/7 - 1/2 = 10/14 - 7/14 = 3/14. So your subtraction problem can be ...

  5/7 - 3/14 = 1/2

Choosing a denominator divisible by 4 can make both parts of the problem use the same denominator.

  3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4, so the corresponding subtraction problem is 3/4 - 1/4 = 1/2.

  5/8 - 4/8 = 1/8, so the subtraction problem is 5/8 -1/8 = 1/2.
