Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] - \frac{1}{2} x + 3 = - x + 7[/tex]
Collect like terms and simplify
[tex] - \frac{1}{2} x + x = 7 - 3 \\ \frac{1}{2} x = 4[/tex]
Cross Multiply
[tex]x \times 1 = 2 \times 4 \\ x = 8[/tex]
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/2x+3=-x+7
Add x to each side
-1/2x+x+3=-x+x+7
1/2x+3=7
Subtract 3 from each side
1/2x +3-3=7-3
1/2x=4
Multiply by 2
1/2x*2 = 4*2
x = 8
