Question

What is the value of x in the equation 1/4x-1/8=7/8+1/2x?A. x=-5B. x=-4C. x=4D.x=5​

Answer 1

Answer:

B) x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{7}{8}+\frac{1}{2}x\\\\\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{7}{8}\\\\\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{1}{2}x=\frac{7}{8}+\frac{1}{8}\\\\\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{1*2}{2*2}=\frac{7+1}{8}\\\\\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{2}{4}x=1\\\\\frac{1-2}{4}x=1\\\\\frac{-1}{4}x=1\\\\x=1*\frac{-4}{1}\\\\x=-4$

Answer 2

C is always the answer
