Answer:
In this equation, x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Solving a Multi-Step Equation 3/4x +3-2x=-1/4+1/2x+5
3/4x +3-2x=-1/4+1/2x+5
3/4x - 2x -1/2x = -1/4 + 5 -3 (Putting all the values of x on the left)
3x - 8x - 2x = -1 + 20 -12 (Multiplying by 4 at both sides)
-7x = 7
x = -1
2. Proof of replacing x by -1
3/4 (-1) + 3 - 2 (-1) = - 1/4 + (-1/2) + 5
-3/4 + 3 + 2 = - 1/4 -1/2 + 5
-3 + 12 + 8 = - 1 - 2 + 20 (Multiplying by 4 at both sides)
17 = 17
It means the value of - 1 for x is correct
