1. Solve and express the solution set in simplest form 4X-1/3 = 7/1 A) {4/3} B) { 7/3} C) { 3/2} D) { 11/2 }

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, the first thing we need to do is to put the x on a side of the equation all by itself. To do that we must add (1/3) to each side. At this point we have: 4x = 7/1 + 1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then, we need to add 7/1 and 1/3, because as they are, it's just too confusing.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, we can multiply (7/1) by (3/3), to give us (21/3).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So now, we have: 4x = 21/3 + 1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And then all we've got to do is isolate the x by dividing our result by four.
