1 answer

To simplify the expression \((3/4x - 1) + (3/4x - 2)\), we will combine like terms.

  1. First, let's distribute and combine the like terms: \[ (3/4x - 1) + (3/4x - 2) = 3/4x + 3/4x - 1 - 2 \]

  2. Combine the \(3/4x\) terms: \[ 3/4x + 3/4x = 6/4x = \frac{3}{2}x \]

  3. Combine the constant terms: \[ -1 - 2 = -3 \]

  4. Now we put it all together: \[ \frac{3}{2}x - 3 \]

Therefore, the simplified expression is: \[ \frac{3}{2}x - 3 \]

None of the provided options exactly match \( \frac{3}{2}x - 3\). If you are looking for a specific match, it appears to not be listed.
