Let's solve each equation step-by-step.
### (a) [tex]\( x - 1 = \frac{1}{2} x \)[/tex]
1. Subtract [tex]\(\frac{1}{2} x\)[/tex] from both sides:
[tex]\[ x - \frac{1}{2} x - 1 = 0 \][/tex]
2. Simplify the left side:
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{2} x - 1 = 0 \][/tex]
3. Add 1 to both sides:
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{2} x = 1 \][/tex]

1. Expand both sides:
[tex]\[ 2x - 2 + 3x + 3 = 4x + 16 \][/tex]
2. Combine like terms:
[tex]\[ 5x + 1 = 4x + 16 \][/tex]
3. Subtract 4x from both sides:
[tex]\[ x + 1 = 16 \][/tex]
