Question 1205252
<pre>
1/2 (x + 1) - x/3 (2x - 1) = 2/3
</pre>


Your spacings make this look like should be
{{{(1/2) (x + 1) - (x/3) (2x - 1) = 2/3}}}


Multiply both sides by 6, simplify, and solve.



{{{cross(highlight(system(1/8,or,11/8)))}}}


{{{3(x+1)-2x(2x-1)=4}}}
{{{3x+3-4x^2+2x=4}}}
{{{-4x^2+5x=1}}}
{{{4x^2-5x+1=0}}}


{{{x=(5+- sqrt(25-16))/(2*4)}}}

{{{x=(5+- 3)/8}}}

{{{system(x=1/4,or,x=1)}}}
