Solve 4x/3+x/3=1/2-2/1

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

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{9}{10}=-0.9$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 3,2.

$$2\times 4x+2x=3-6\times 2$$

Multiply 2 and 4 to get 8.

$$8x+2x=3-6\times 2$$

Combine 8x and 2x to get 10x.

$$10x=3-6\times 2$$

Multiply -6 and 2 to get -12.

$$10x=3-12$$

Subtract 12 from 3 to get -9.

$$10x=-9$$

Divide both sides by 10.

$$x=\frac{-9}{10}$$

Fraction \frac{-9}{10} can be rewritten as -\frac{9}{10} by extracting the negative sign.

$$x=-\frac{9}{10}$$
