It would help if you proofread your questions before you posted them.
1. Where is the = sign?
2. Change to common denominator.
20/24x + 6/24 = -54/24
20/24x = -60/24
Would that give you -2?
Please help me solve these two problems and check my answer :)
1. 3x-5+x+2
My answer- X= 17/3
2. 5/6x+1/4= -9/4
my answer- X= -2

#1 I cannot see any way that equation will work with your answer. For if you are correct, 3x=17, and everything except the remaining x is an integer. No way to combine them in to 17/3.
