\(a,=-5+\dfrac{1}{5}-2\cdot\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{2}=-5-1+\dfrac{1}{5}=-\dfrac{29}{5}\\ b,\Rightarrow\left|\dfrac{1}{2}-x\right|=\dfrac{28}{5}\Rightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}\dfrac{1}{2}-x=\dfrac{28}{5}\\x-\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{28}{5}\end{matrix}\right.\Rightarrow\left[{}\begin{matrix}x=-\dfrac{51}{10}\\x=\dfrac{61}{10}\end{matrix}\right.\)
