Solve 2(5x-7)=1/2 x

Evaluate

2 (5 x - 7) = \frac{1}{2} x

Expand the expression

More Steps

10 x - 14 = \frac{1}{2} x

Move the variable to the left side

10 x - 14 - \frac{1}{2} x = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

\frac{19}{2} x - 14 = 0

Move the constant to the right side

\frac{19}{2} x = 0 + 14

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

\frac{19}{2} x = 14

Multiply by the reciprocal

\frac{19}{2} x \times \frac{2}{19} = 14 \times \frac{2}{19}

Multiply

x = 14 \times \frac{2}{19}

Solution
