Question

solve for x 3/4 + x = 1/2

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve for x, you can add or subtract the same thing from both sides of the equation so you get x by itself on one side.

if you start with

x + 3/4 = 1/2

you can subtract 3/4 from both sides to get rid of it on the x side

x + 3/4 - 3/4 = 1/2 - 3/4

x = 1/2 - 3/4

x = -1/4
