1) distribute the 5/4 and subtract 9 from both sides

5/4x-5/2+2x-4-9=0

2)add/subtract common variables

3.25x-15.5=0

3) move the 15.5 to the other side

3.25x=15.5

4) divide both sides by 3.25 and you have x

x=4.77

\dfrac 54 (x-2) +2x -4 = 9\\\\\implies \dfrac{5x-10}{4} +2x = 9 +4 \\\\\\\implies \dfrac{5x -10 + 8x}4 = 13\\\\\implies 13x -10 = 13 \times 4 =52\\\\\implies 13x = 52 +10  = 62\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{62}{13}

irga5000 [103]
2/3(6c+4)-(8c-5)
1) Get rid of the negative signs
New equation (the ones in bold are the changes): 2/3(6c+4)+(-8c)+(5)
2) Use distributive property for the first part by multiplying 2/3*6c= 4c and 2/3*4= 2 2/3
New equation: 4c+2 2/3+ (-8c) + 5
3) Combine like terms: 4c+(-8c)= -4c and 2 2/3+5= 7 2/3
New and simplified equation: -4c+ 7 2/3
