\frac{3}{2}x=2x+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{4}x
Combine \frac{5}{4}x and \frac{1}{4}x to get \frac{3}{2}x.
\frac{3}{2}x=\frac{11}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}
Combine 2x and \frac{3}{4}x to get \frac{11}{4}x.
\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{11}{4}x=\frac{1}{2}
Subtract \frac{11}{4}x from both sides.
-\frac{5}{4}x=\frac{1}{2}
Combine \frac{3}{2}x and -\frac{11}{4}x to get -\frac{5}{4}x.
x=\frac{1}{2}\left(-\frac{4}{5}\right)
Multiply both sides by -\frac{4}{5}, the reciprocal of -\frac{5}{4}.
x=\frac{1\left(-4\right)}{2\times 5}
Multiply \frac{1}{2} times -\frac{4}{5} by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
