Question

Solve the following equation:

$3\frac{3}{4}x=2x-1\frac{1}{2}$

• A. $-\frac{4}{7}$
• B. $-\frac{6}{7}$
• C. $-\frac{7}{2}$
• D. $-\frac{5}{2}$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$-\frac{6}{7}$

$3\frac{3}{4}x=2x-1\frac{1}{2}$

$=>\frac{15x}{4}=2x-\frac{3}{2}$

$=>\frac{15x}{4}-2x+\frac{3}{2}=0$

$=>\frac{15x-8x+6}{4}=0$

$=>7x=-6$

$=>x=-\frac{6}{7}$
