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

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation y = x - 2?
Liula [17]

Answer:

One order pair is  

( 2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

What ordered pairs are the options?

Pick a value for  

x

and solve for  

y

. Or find the intercepts.

If  

x

=

2

, then:

y

=

2

−

2

⇒

y

=

0

So we have  

(

2

,

0

)

If  

x

=

0

, then:

y

=

0

−

2

⇒

y

=

−

2

Here we have  

(

0

,

−

2

)

You can simply use  

0

for both  

x

and  

y

(intercept) to get the same answer.
