1. **Problem Statement:** Determine if equation D, $\frac{1}{2}x = x + \frac{1}{2}$, has one solution.
2. **Write the equation:**
$$\frac{1}{2}x = x + \frac{1}{2}$$
3. **Isolate terms:**
Subtract $x$ from both sides:
$$\frac{1}{2}x - x = \frac{1}{2}$$
4. **Simplify the left side:**
$$\frac{1}{2}x - 1x = \left(\frac{1}{2} - 1\right)x = -\frac{1}{2}x$$
So the equation becomes:
$$-\frac{1}{2}x = \frac{1}{2}$$
5. **Solve for $x$:**
Multiply both sides by $-2$ to clear the fraction:
$$x = -2 \times \frac{1}{2} = -1$$
6. **Interpretation:**
The equation has exactly one solution, $x = -1$.
**Summary:** Equation D has one unique solution at $x = -1$.
