Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5(x + 4) - 3 = 4.5(x - 2)

Distribute

1.5x + 6 -3 = 4.5x - 9

Combine like terms

1.5x +3 = 4.5x -9

Subtract 1.5x from each side

1.5x -1.5x +3 = 4.5x -1.5x-9

3 = 3x-9

Add 9 to each side

3+9 = 3x-9+9

12 =3x

Divide each side by 3

12/3 = 3x/3

4=x

Answer:

f(0) = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

At x=0, the inequality tells you ...

1/2 ≤ 1 -f(0) ≤ 1/2

That is, ...

1 - f(0) = 1/2

f(0) = 1/2

$\boxed{\lim\limits_{x\to 0}{f(x)}=\dfrac{1}{2}}$
