You need to solve the equation.  IF x = 0 then and only then is it unsolvable.

4/5 + 3/x = 1/2 - setup
8x + 30 = 5x
3x = -30
x = -10

Since x isn't 0 then the answer is valid

Solve for b<br> −3b+2.5=4<br> Two step equations with fractions and decimals
DIA [1.3K]
−3b+2.5=4

Subtract 2.5 from both sides.

−3b+2.5−2.5=4−2.5

−3b=1.5

Divide both sides by -3.

−3b/−3 = 1.5/−3

b=−0.5
