Question 1045678:  3/2 (5x+7)-4=2/5 (3-x)+2

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! 3/2 (5x+7)-4=2/5 (3-x)+2 
distribute after first moving the 2 to the left side 
(15/2)x+(21/2)-6=(6/5)-(2/5)x 
Multiply everything by 10 
75x+105-60=12-4x 
79x=-33 
x=-0.418 or -0.42 
Check 
(3/2)(-2.09+7)-4=(2/5)(3.418)+2 
1.5(4.91)-4=1.367+2 
7.365-4=3.367 
3.365=3.367, and given the rounding that was done, that checks.
