Question

2/3x=-1/2x+5 solve for x, please

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{3}x=-\frac{1}{2}x+5\\\\\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{1}{2}x=5\\\\\frac{2*2}{3*2}x+\frac{1*3}{2*3}x=5\\\\\frac{4}{6}x+\frac{3}{6}x=5\\\\\frac{(4+3)}{6}x=5\\\\\frac{7}{6}x=5\\\\x=5*\frac{6}{7}\\\\x=\frac{30}{7}\\\\x=4\frac{2}{7}$
