Question

-1/2x+2=x+7 how do you work this problem​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3.333333333

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x by simplifying both sides both sides, then isolating the variable.

$-\frac{1}{2} x+2=x+7$

                          -2    -2

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

                  *2        *2

$x+2x=+10$

      -2x    -2x

$-3x=10$

$x=-\frac{10}{3}$

x = -3.3333333
