The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \((9x + 7)/2 - (x - (x - 2)/7) = 36\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Simplify the Equation Start with the original equation: \[ \frac{9x + 7}{2} - \left(x - \frac{x - 2}{7}\right) = 36 \] ### Step 2: Simplify the Expression Inside the Parentheses First, simplify the term \(x - \frac{x - 2}{7}\): - Find a common denominator for the terms inside the parentheses. The common denominator is 7. - Rewrite \(x\) as \(\frac{7x}{7}\): \[ x - \frac{x - 2}{7} = \frac{7x}{7} - \frac{x - 2}{7} = \frac{7x - (x - 2)}{7} = \frac{7x - x + 2}{7} = \frac{6x + 2}{7} \] ### Step 3: Substitute Back into the Equation Now substitute this back into the equation: \[ \frac{9x + 7}{2} - \frac{6x + 2}{7} = 36 \] ### Step 4: Eliminate the Fractions To eliminate the fractions, find the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators (2 and 7), which is 14. Multiply the entire equation by 14: \[ 14 \left(\frac{9x + 7}{2}\right) - 14 \left(\frac{6x + 2}{7}\right) = 14 \times 36 \] This simplifies to: \[ 7(9x + 7) - 2(6x + 2) = 504 \] ### Step 5: Distribute and Combine Like Terms Distributing gives: \[ 63x + 49 - 12x - 4 = 504 \] Combine like terms: \[ (63x - 12x) + (49 - 4) = 504 \] This simplifies to: \[ 51x + 45 = 504 \] ### Step 6: Isolate the Variable Subtract 45 from both sides: \[ 51x = 504 - 45 \] \[ 51x = 459 \] ### Step 7: Solve for \(x\) Divide both sides by 51: \[ x = \frac{459}{51} \] Calculating this gives: \[ x = 9 \] ### Step 8: Check the Solution Substitute \(x = 9\) back into the original equation to verify: \[ \frac{9(9) + 7}{2} - \left(9 - \frac{9 - 2}{7}\right) = 36 \] Calculating: \[ \frac{81 + 7}{2} - \left(9 - \frac{7}{7}\right) = 36 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{88}{2} - (9 - 1) = 36 \] \[ 44 - 8 = 36 \] Since both sides are equal, our solution is verified. ### Final Answer: \[ x = 9 \] ---
