Answer:

x = [tex]\frac{21}{32}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] - x = [tex]\frac{x}{7}[/tex]

Multiply through by 28 ( the LCM of 4 and 7 ) to clear the fractions

21 - 28x = 4x ( subtract 4x from both sides )

21 - 32x = 0 ( subtract 21 from both sides )

- 32x = - 21 ( divide both sides by - 32 )

x = [tex]\frac{21}{32}[/tex]
