Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x−4)−5(x−2)=1

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3(2x−4)−5(x−2)=1

(3)(2x)+(3)(−4)+(−5)(x)+(−5)(−2)=1(Distribute)

6x+−12+−5x+10=1

(6x+−5x)+(−12+10)=1(Combine Like Terms)

x+−2=1

x−2=1

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

x−2+2=1+2

x=3

${x}^{2} - \frac{15x}{2} + \frac{7}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we go backwards, since we have x= 1/2 , 7

$(x - \frac{1}{2} )(x - 7)$

Now we have to foil to get the quadratic

${x}^{2} - 7x - \frac{1}{2} x + \frac{7}{2}$

We must simplify the terms

${x}^{2} - \frac{14x}{2} - \frac{x}{2} + \frac{7}{2}$

Our final result comes out to be

${x}^{2} - \frac{15x}{2} + \frac{7}{2}$
