3x+7/2-4x+11/3=5please solve quickly

Answer»

\dfrac{3x+ 7}{2}  - \dfrac{4x + 11}{3}  = 5


Make EQUIVALENT FRACTIONS:

\dfrac{3(3x+ 7)}{3(2)}  - \dfrac{2(4x + 11)}{2(3)}  = 5


\dfrac{9x+21}{6} - \dfrac{8x + 22}6} = 5

Make Single Fraction:

\dfrac{(9x + 21) - (8x + 22)}{6}  = 5


\dfrac{9x + 21 - 8x - 22}{6}  = 5


\dfrac{x - <klux>1</klux>}{6}  = 5


Cross multiply:

x - 1 = 30


ADD 1 to both sides:

x = 31


ANSWER: x = 31
