IF
Multiply thru by 18
3x - 5 + 18x = 18x + 30 + 18
3x = 53
x = 53/3 0r 17 2/3
|
Using 53/3 to check
48/18 + 53/3 = 58/3 + 1
48/18 = 5/3 + 1 = 8/3 CHECKS!

Solve the equation for x and check.
(3x-5)/18+x=(3x+5)/3+1
-----
Multiply both sides by 18*3 to rid of the denominators::
3(3x-5) + 18*3x = 18(3x+5) + 18*3
---------------------------------------
9x - 15 + 54x = 54x + 90 + 54
----------------------------------
63x - 15 = 54x + 144
-----
9x = 159
-----
x = 17 2/3
