(5*x+4)/2+3=9*x/4 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
(5*x+4)/2+3 = 9*x/4
Expand brackets in the left part
5*x/2+4/2+3 = 9*x/4
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
5 + 5*x/2 = 9*x/4
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$\frac{5 x}{2} = \frac{9 x}{4} - 5$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\frac{x}{4} = -5$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 1/4
x = -5 / (1/4)
We get the answer: x = -20
