Solution for 3x-7=1/4x equation:

3x-7=1/4x

We move all terms to the left:

3x-7-(1/4x)=0


Domain of the equation: 4x)!=0

x!=0/1

x!=0

x∈R


We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3x-(+1/4x)-7=0

We get rid of parentheses

3x-1/4x-7=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


3x*4x-7*4x-1=0

Wy multiply elements

12x^2-28x-1=0

a = 12; b = -28; c = -1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -282-4·12·(-1)
Δ = 832
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{832}=\sqrt{64*13}=\sqrt{64}*\sqrt{13}=8\sqrt{13}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-28)-8\sqrt{13}}{2*12}=\frac{28-8\sqrt{13}}{24}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-28)+8\sqrt{13}}{2*12}=\frac{28+8\sqrt{13}}{24}
