Question

-1/2x + 1/8 = -1/3x - i/4

Answer 1

Answer:

x= 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/(2x) + 1/8 = -1/(3x) - 1/4

-1/(2x)+1(3x)= - 1/4 -1/8

-3/(6x)+2(6x) = -2/8 -1/8

- 1/(6x) = - 3/8

-1*8 = -3*6x

8=18x

x= 8/18= 4/9

Check:

-1/(2*4/9) + 1/8 = -1/(3*4/9) - 1/4

- 1(8/9) + 1/8 = - 1/(4/3)-1/4

-9/8+1/8 = - 3/4-1/4

-1 = -1
