Answer:
8x +36 = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
The fractions can be made to disappear by multiplying the equation by their least common denominator. That number is 18.
18(4/9x +2) = 18(5/6)
8x +36 = 15
__
The solution is x = -21/8.
Simplifying
3x + 4 = 7 + -2x
Reorder the terms:
4 + 3x = 7 + -2x
Solving
4 + 3x = 7 + -2x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '2x' to each side of the equation.
4 + 3x + 2x = 7 + -2x + 2x
Combine like terms: 3x + 2x = 5x
4 + 5x = 7 + -2x + 2x
Combine like terms: -2x + 2x = 0
4 + 5x = 7 + 0
4 + 5x = 7
Add '-4' to each side of the equation.
4 + -4 + 5x = 7 + -4
Combine like terms: 4 + -4 = 0
0 + 5x = 7 + -4
5x = 7 + -4
Combine like terms: 7 + -4 = 3
5x = 3
Divide each side by '5'.
x = 0.6
Answer: x = 0.6
2.5 week 3 days = 20 days and 12 hours
2.5•7=17.5 17.5 +3 = 20.5
5 week 3 days = 38 days
5•7=35 35+3= 38 days
