What is the value of x in the equation 1.5(х + 4) — 3 = 4.5(х – 2)? a 3b 4c 5d 9

B.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5(x+4) - 3 = 4.5( x-2)open brackets on both sides

1.5 x +6 -3= 4.5x- 9collect like terms

3+9 = 4.5 x- 1.5x

12=3xdivide by 3 both sides to get x

12/3=x

x=4

ANSWER

x=4

EXPLANATION

The given equation is

Multiply through by 10

We expand to get:

Group similar terms to get;

2^y = ln 5, or   y(ln 2) = ln 5.   solving for y,   y = (ln 5) / (ln 2).   y=5
