OK. Now you show me yours, and I'll show you mine.

Just clear the fraction and get rid of the parens. Then it's clear sailing.

2x+3x-4x+5=x/2
x-5=x/2
-5=x/2-x

i don't know what next ,,,
Answered by Steve
you must multiply everything by 4 to clear the fraction. Why did you continue on with another fraction? And your arithmetic is wrong, as well.

2x + [3x-(4x-5) ]=x/4-2
8x + 4[3x-(4x-5) ] = x-8
8x + 12x - 16x + 20 = x - 8
4x+20 = x-8
3x = -28
x = -28/3
