3y/2 = 7+y/4

first you need equal denominators in both fractions

6y/4 = 7 + y/4

Simplify by adding the fractions

6y/4 -y/4 = 7 + y/4 - y/4

= 5y/4 = 7

remove the fraction

5y = 28

solve for y

y = 28/5

***all of these problems can be done in the same manner, just take your time and simplfy the problem step by step***

Hope this gets you in the right direction!

1)6y/4-y/4=7 ==> y=28/5
3)-4x/5=4/9 ==>x= -5/9
4)1/x =-4 ==> x=-1/4
5) 2/x=-6 ==>x=-1/3
2) 3/2x= =4/9 ==>x=27/8

1) 3*y/2 = 7 + y/4
get all the unknowns to one side
3*y/2 - y/4 = 7
now get rid of the denominators
6*y/4 - y/4 = 5*y/4 = 7
5*y = 28
y = 28/5 ANSWER

Follow this procedure for the rest of the problems.

2) Is 1/2x =(1/2)*x or 1/(2*x)?
Indifference to parentheses leads to ambiguity. Right?

I hope it's wright because i did it quickly :)

you can only simplify these, not solve them. I hope this is helpful:)

1) 3y=14+2y/4
-14=-3y+2y/4
-14=-12y/4+2y/4
-14=-10y/4
56=10y
y=5.6

2)x/2+1/x=3/8
x^2/2x+2/2x=3/8
2+x^2=3/8
16+8x^2=3
x=(square root of)13/8

3)x=5x+20/9
-4x=20/9
-26x=20
x=-5/9

4) 3/x+4-1/x=1/x
3/x+4=0
x=-3/4

5)4/x=-6
x=-4/6
x=-2/3
