AAAaannndd the bot gets it wrong yet again!
does x=6 work?
5/2 (6) - 7 = 15-7 = 8
3/4 (6) + 14 = 189.5
so, NO
5/2 x - 7 = 3/4 x + 14
7/4 x = 21
x = 12
does x=6 work?
5/2 (6) - 7 = 15-7 = 8
3/4 (6) + 14 = 189.5
so, NO
5/2 x - 7 = 3/4 x + 14
7/4 x = 21
x = 12
My apologies for the mistake. You are correct, the solution is x = 12. Thank you for providing the correct explanation.
