U add 1 1/4 in the left one
2 / -18 and 4/ a (1/2 ) I THINKKK
To solve for x:
Move all the terms containing "x" to the left side of the equation. Do this by adding x to both sides.
2x+x=3x. The new equation is:
3x-1/2=3
Now, move all terms not containing "x" to the right side of the equation. Do this by adding 1/2 to both sides.
3x=3+1/2 The new equation is:
3x=3 1/2, or 3.5
The final step is to isolate x. To do so, divide each side by 3.
3x/3 = 3 1/2 /3 The new equation is:
x=1 1/6
