The equation that has a solution different from the rest is:
3/4x + 5 = -1/4
To solve for x, we can subtract 5 from both sides of the equation:
3/4x = -1/4 - 5
Simplifying further:
3/4x = -21/4
Now, to isolate x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 3/4, which is 4/3:
(3/4x)(4/3) = (-21/4)(4/3)
This gives us:
x = -21/3 = -7
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3/4x + 5 = -1/4 is x = -7, which is different from the solutions of the other equations.
