Answer:
a = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
8.1 = 0.9a
Solving
8.1 = 0.9a
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-0.9a' to each side of the equation.
8.1 + -0.9a = 0.9a + -0.9a
Combine like terms: 0.9a + -0.9a = 0.0
8.1 + -0.9a = 0.0
Add '-8.1' to each side of the equation.
8.1 + -8.1 + -0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1
Combine like terms: 8.1 + -8.1 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1
-0.9a = 0.0 + -8.1
Combine like terms: 0.0 + -8.1 = -8.1
-0.9a = -8.1
Divide each side by '-0.9'.
a = 9
Simplifying
a = 9
The answer would be B) x = 4.
1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9
1.5x + 3 = 4.5x - 9
3 = 4.5x - 9 - 1.5x
3 = 3x - 9
3 + 9 = 3x
12 = 3x
12/3 = x
4 = x
x = 4.
