Answer:
x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve for x, first combine both fractions on the left
To add 4x-2/8 + 3+x/4 first find the least common denominator of 8 and 4
It's 8 so multiply the numerator and denominator of 3+x/4 by 8, you would get:
8x+24/32
Multiply 4x-2/8 by 4, you will get:
16x-8/32
Now you can add 16x-8/32 + 8x+24/32, you would get:
24x+16/32
Now you can start to solve for x
Your new equation is 24x+16/32 = 1/2
To solve for x, first multiply diagonally, then solve like a regular equation.
Multiply 24x+16 by 2 to get 48x+32
Then multiply 32 by 1 to get 32
Your new equation is 48x+32=32
Now subtract 32 by 32 to get 48x=0
Now divide 48 by 0 to get x=0
=
= 2
