x + 3/2 + x - 1 = 4/5

Collect the same terms

x + x + 3/2 - 1 = 4/5

2x + 3/2 - 2/2 = 4/5

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

2x + 1/2 = 4/5

2x + 0.5 = 0.8

Subtract both sides 0.5

2x + 0.5 - 0.5 = 0.8 - 0.5

2x + 0 = 0.3

2x = 3/10

Divide both sides by 2

2x ÷ 2 = ( 3/10 ) ÷ 2

x = 3/10 × 1/2

x = 3/20

_________________________________

<h2>Check :</h2>

3/20 + 3/2 + ( 3/20 - 1 ) = 4/5

3/20 + 30/20 + ( 3/20 - 20/20 ) = 4/5

(3 + 30)/20 + (3 - 20)/20 = 4/5

33/20 - 17/20 = 4/5

(33 - 17)/20 = 4/5

16/20 = 4/5

4 × 4 / 4 × 5 = 4/5

4/5 = 4/5

Thus we found the correct value of x .

And we're done...

Answer:

x = \frac{3}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x + \frac{3}{2} + (x - 1) = \frac{4}{5}

Multiply through by 10 ( the LCM of 2 and 5 ) to clear the fractions

10x + 15 + 10(x - 1) = 8

10x + 15 + 10x - 10 = 8

20x + 5 = 8 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

20x = 3 ( divide both sides by 20 )

x = \frac{3}{20}

Tema [17]
The answer is A. 14h + 11d

because if you 3d and 8d it will give you 11d

the take 24h and subtract to 10h it will give you 14h

so when you write it you answer is 14h + 11d

Hope this helps! :)
