I will explain step by step how to solve for x

Remove the parenthesis using distributive property
1.5(x + 4) - 3 = 4.5(x - 2)
1.5(x) + 1.5(4) = 4.5(x) - 4.5(2)
1.5x + 6 = 4.5x - 9

Combining like-terms. Move the terms whose variable x to the left side, and move constants to the right side. Plus sign will become substract sign after being moved.
1.5x + 6 = 4.5x - 9
1.5x - 4.5x = -9 - 6
-3x = -12

Move -3 to the right side to solve for x. Multiplication becomes division after being moved to the other side
-3x = -12
x = -12/-3
x = 4

The value of x is 4

5-a/8=4/7 solve for a show your work
timama [110]
Subtract 5 from both sides
a/-8 = 4/7 - 5

simplify 4/7 - 5 to 31/-7
a/-8 = 31/-7

multiply both sides by 8 
-a = 31/-7 x 8

simplify 31/7 x 8 to 248/7
-a = 248/7

multiply both sides by -1.
The answer is a = 248/7

The words are the explanations of the steps and the dark bolded words are the work shown for each step.

padilas [110]
I don't have the measurements, but the lqbel would be a rectangle so you need to find its length and height (the length being the circumference of the can and the height being the height of the can)
