See explanation

#(10x+2)/2=4x+1/4#
#5x+1=4x+1/4#
#5x-4x=1/4-1#
#1x=1/4-1/1#
#x=1/4-4/4#
#x=-3/4#

Answer 2 · 2018-01-26T03:13:23

#x = -3/4#

#(10x+2)/2 = 4x+1/4#

let's multiply both sides by #2#

#cancel2 xx (10x+2)/cancel2 = 2 xx (4x + 1/4)#

#10x+2 = 8x +1/2#

subtract #8x# on both sides

#2x +2 = 1/2#

subtract #2# on both sides

#2x = -3/2#

divide by #2# on both sides

#x = -(3/2)/2#

or

#x = -3/2 xx 1/2#

#x = -3/4#
