Question

What is the value of x in the equation 3 X- 3 8 5 X2

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{2} x - \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{8} - \frac{5}{8} x \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} x + \frac{5}{8} x = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{3}{4} \\ \\ \frac{1 \times 4}{2 \times 4} x + \frac{5}{8} x = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{3 \times 2}{4 \times 2} \\ \\ \frac{4}{8} x + \frac{5}{8} x = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{6}{8} \\ \\ \frac{4 + 5}{8} x = \frac{3 + 6}{8} \\ \\ \frac{9}{8} x = \frac{9}{8} \\ \\ x = \frac{9}{8} \times \frac{8}{9} \\ \\ x = 1$
