Consider the equation

3 (-x+2) - 1=5x-4

9/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

(3 • (2 - x) - 1) - (5x - 4) = 0

Step 2:

9 - 8x = 0

Step 3:

3.1 Solve : - 8x+9 = 0

Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation:

-8x = - 9

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : 8x = 9

Divide both sides of the equation by 8:

x = 9/8 = 1.125

One solution was found:

x = 9/8 = 1.125
