Question 770677: hey need some help with this math question, um do you mind also putting out your workings and why you did that certain step. Thanks I struggle a bit so hopefully this will help. When I do this 2/3 it means a fraction.
solve the x in these equations. multiply by the LCD to eliminate fractions. Vertify the solutions.
x-5/2=7/2+1/2x
Thanks, hope you can help
Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x - 5/2 = 7/2 + 1/2x
LCD = 2x
2x^2 - 5x = 7x + 1
2x^2 - 5x - 7x - 1 = 0
2x^2 - 12x - 1 = 0
a = 2, b = -12, c = -1

x = 7 +- 12.33/4
x = 7 +- 3.08
x = 10.08 and 3.92
Hope this helps.
:-)
