Question

Solve the linear equations 1/4(x-5)+4=1/3(2x+7)-5/6

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation :

1/4(x-5)+4=1/3(2x+7)-5/6

(x-5)/4 + 4 = (2x+7)/3 - 5/6

Take the lcm and sum

(x-5+16)/4 = (4x+14-5)/6

(x+11)/4 = (4x+9)/6

Cross multiply

6(x+11) = 4(4x+9)

6x + 66 = 16x + 36

Collect like terms

6x - 16x = 36 - 66

-10x = - 30

x = 30/10

x = 3
