Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]x = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex](x-2)

simplify:

[tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3(x-2)}{4}[/tex]

multiply both sides by 4:

2x = 3(x-2)

expand:

2x = 3x - 6

subtract 3x from both sides:

-x = -6

divide both sides by -1:

x = 6

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x = 3/4(x-2)

x/2 = 3/2^2(x-2)

x/2 = 3(x-2)/2^2

2x = 3x - 3 x 2

2x = 3x - 6

2x + (-3x) = (3x - 6)

-x = (3x - 6) - 3x

-x = 3x - 6 - 3x

-x = 3x - 3x - 6

-x = -6

x = 6
