Question 125574: 1/2(x-5)=x/4
I have tried this question so many ways, my head hurts. I can't figure it out! I only need one example and I will be able to complete my homework, unfortunately the text book does not give me an example. I have plans to go into school early if you can't help, but I thought I would give this a shot. I like to work things out on my own, but this is review from last year and after not seeing math problems for a year I'm struggling. Thanks
