Question

How do you solve `7/4+1/5x-32=4/5x`?

Answer 1

`x = -605/12`

Explanation:

Rearrange equation to have like terms on each side of the equation and simplify it.

`4/5 x - 1/5 x = 7/4 -32`

`3/5 x = (7-128)/4-> 3/5x = -121/4`

Cross multiply to have a linear equation.

`12x = -605`

`x = -605/12`
