Question 212060
x+15/6-2x+8/2=-4


Step 1.  To solve for x collect like terms on left side. Simplify 8/2=4.


{{{(x-2x)+15/6+4=-4}}}

Step 2.  Subtract {{{15/6+4}}} to both sides of equation to isolate x by itself on the left side

{{{-x+15/6+4-15/16-4=-4-4-15/6}}}  (left side is now -x when canceling terms)

{{{-x=-4-4-15/6}}} (simplify left side)

{{{-x=-8-15/6}}}  (simplify right side -4-4=-8)

{{{-x=-8*6/6-15/6}}}  (put in common denominator)

{{{-x=-(48-15)/6}}}  (multiply by -1 to both sides of equation toget final answer below)

{{{x=-(33)/6}}}
