Question

What is the solution to the linear equation? x – StartFraction 2 Over 3 EndFraction x minus StartFraction one-half EndFraction equals StartFraction 1 Over 3 EndFraction plus StartFraction 5 Over 6 EndFraction x. = + x x = –5 x = –negative StartFraction 1 Over 6 EndFraction x = negative StartFraction 1 Over 6 EndFraction x = 5

Answer 1

Answer: -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

$x=-5/3$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$x-\frac{2}{3} x-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{5}{6}x$

Solve for x

Multiply by 6 both sides to remove the fractions

$6x-4x-3=2+5x$

Combine like terms

$2x-3=2+5x$

$5x-2x=-3-2$

$3x=-5$

$x=-5/3$
