Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply out. [tex]\frac{3}{8} x+3=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}+\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
2. add the fractions [tex]\frac{3}{8} x+3=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{11}{4}[/tex]
3. Common denominator. Multiply both sides by 8. [tex]3x+24=4x+22[/tex]
4. Variables to the left. [tex]3x-4x=22-24[/tex]
5. combine like terms. [tex]-x=-2[/tex]
6. divided both sides by -1. [tex]x=2[/tex]
