Answer 1

Answer:

${ \tt{ \frac{x + 0.25}{3} - 0.5 = x }} \\ \\ { \tt{ \frac{x + 0.25}{3} = x + 0.5}} \\ \\ { \tt{x + 0.25 = 3(x + 0.5)}} \\ \\ { \tt{x + 0.25 = 3x + 1.5}} \\ \\ { \tt{3x - x = 0.25 - 1.5}} \\ \\ { \tt{2x = -1.25}} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{ \: \: x = -0.625 \: \: or \: \: -\frac{5}{8} }}}}$

Answer 2

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{x+0.25}{3}-0.5=x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{x+0.25-1.5}{3}=x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x-1.25=3x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x-3x=1.25$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto -2x=1.25$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{1.25}{-2}=-0.625$
