Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]12(4x - 5) + \frac{5}{2}=10[/tex]

Multiply the whole equation by 2

[tex]2*12(4x -5) + \frac{5}{2}*2=10*2\\\\24(4x-5) + 2 = 20\\[/tex]

24*4x - 5*24 + 2 = 20

96x - 120 + 2 = 20

 96x - 118 = 20

Add 118 to both sides

       96x = 20 +118

       96x = 138

Divide both sides by 96

x = 138/96  = 23/16

[tex]x = 1 \frac{7}{16}[/tex]
