Question

What is the value of x in the equation 1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2)?​

Answer 1

x=4

Step-by-step explanation

Answer 2

4=x

Explanation:

1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2) distribute

1.5x+6-3 = 4.5x-9 subtract 1.5x from each side

3=3x-9 add 9 to both sides

12=3x divide by on both sides

4=x simplify
