(2x - 5) / (3 - 3x) + 1/2 = 2
Subtract 1/2 from each side . . . . . (2x - 5) / (3 - 3x) = 1.5
Multiply each side by (3-3x) . . . . . (2x - 5) = 1.5 (3 - 3x)
Eliminate parentheses on each side . . . . . 2x - 5 = 4.5 - 4.5x
Add 5 to each side . . . . . 2x = 9.5 - 4.5x
Add 4.5x to each side . . . . . 6.5x = 9.5
Divide each side by 6.5 . . . . . x = 9.5/6.5 = 19/13

The answer is very easy: x= 16 ________ 2 +(2*5) x= 16 ____ 12 x = 4 __ 3
Two possibilities 1. (9+2) X 5 = 11 X 5 = 55 2. 9 + 2X5 = 9 + 10 = 19 Does your problem have parenthesis aka "()" symbols in it? ?
you take the y=mx+b alright then you plug in your numbers. So say you got (5,4)(X,Y) and the slope was 2 the equation would then be 4=2(5)+b. Then you do 2x5 which equals 10. Then you divide the 10 on both sides. the 10 and the 10 cancel each other out and the 4/10 =2/5 and then 2/5=b. There you have it!
