Solve for x:

4x - 3.75x = 1.5x - 1

Asked by annasmith7199

Answer (3)

Let's solve your equation step-by-step. 4x − 3.75x = 1.5x −1
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation. 0.25x = 1.5x −1
Step 2: Subtract 1.5x from both sides. 0.25x − 1.5x = 1.5x −1 − 1.5x − 1.25x = −1
Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.25. ‌ − 1.25x −1.25 ‌ = ‌ −1 −1.25 ‌
x= 0.8
