5x - 1/4 = 3x - 5/4 step by step solution ?

rememer that you can do anything to an equation as long as  you do it to both sides

5x-1/4=3x-5/4

minus 3x both sides

5x-3x-1/4=3x-3x-5/4

2x-1/4=0-5/4

2x-1/4=-5/4

add 1/4 to both sides

2x+1/4-1/4=1/4-5/4

2x+0=-4/4

2x=-1

divide both sides by 2

(2x)/2=-1/2

x(2/2)=-1/2

x(1)=-1/2

x=-1/2

So you have common denominators already so you . should be set to start fully solving for x:

add 1/4 on both sides

5x=3x-4/4             4/4=1

subtract 3x on both sides

2x=1

divide by 2 on both sides.

x=1/2

hope this helps!

9.55 degrees.

step-by-step explanation:

the given angle is

1 cycle is equal to 2π radians. so 4π will be equal to two cycles.

5.166667π-4π = 1.166667π

hence, this angle goes a little more than negative x axis.

1.166667π-π= 0.166667π

hence, the reference angle is 0.166667π radians.

1 radian = 57.2958 degrees

now, in degrees, this should be equals to 9.55 degrees.
