To solve the equations:
1) X - 1/2 = 3/4x
First, get rid of the fractions by multiplying everything by 4 to get:4x - 2 = 3x
Subtract 3x from both sides:x = -2
2) 1 4/5y = y + 4
First, convert 1 4/5 to an improper fraction:1 4/5 = 9/5
Now, substitute back into the equation:9/5y = y + 4
Get rid of the fractions by multiplying everything by 5 to get:9y = 5y + 20
Subtract 5y from both sides:4y = 20
Divide by 4:y = 5
3) 3/4y - 2/3 = 7/12y
First, get rid of the fractions by multiplying everything by 12 to get:9y - 8 = 7y
Subtract 7y from both sides:2y - 8 = 0
Add 8 to both sides:2y = 8
Divide by 2:y = 4
Therefore, the solutions are:1) x = -22) y = 53) y = 4
