-2+3x=2x+6x+x

1. add like terms on right side of equal sign; 2x, 6x and x

-2+3x=9x

2. do the additive inverse of 3x on both sides of the equal sign (subtract 3 x on both sides)

-2=6x

3. do the multiplicative inverse of 6 on both sides (divide 6 from 6x and -2)

-2/6= x

4. simplify -2/6

x=-1/3

4.1/2x^2 = 2

Answer ;x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{x} =8 \\8x = 1\\\\\\8x+1=3\\Collect -like- terms \\8x =3-1\\8x = 2\\Divide -both -sides- by ;8\\\frac{8x}{8} =\frac{2}{8} \\x = 1/4\\\\\\7= \frac{14}{x} \\Cross -multiply\\7x =14\\Divide-both-sides-by-7\\x = 2\\\\\\\frac{1}{2} x^{2} =2\\\frac{x^{2} }{2} =2\\Cross-multiply\\x^{2} =4\\Squre-root -both-sides\\\sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{4} \\x = 2\\$
