Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

(3/2)x - -4 =13

(3x/2)+4=13

Make 3x/2 the subject

3x/2=13-4

3x/2=9

Cross multiply

3x=9(2)

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3= 9(2)/3

x=3(2)

x=6

To check if correct, substitute x for 6 in the equation. And both sides of the equation must be equal

(3/2)x - -4 =13

(3/2)6 - -4 =13

18/2+4=13

9+4=13

13=13

The Distributive Property also combines subtraction and multiplication. for example, . 3 * ( 5 - 2 ) = ( 3 * 5 ) - ( 3 * 2 ).

So the problem ask to find or solve the problem using distributive property, so to calculate if using distributive property is just the same calculation if you are multiplying two number using a paper so the answer is 5(8)+5(90)+5(100), 40+ 450+500 = 990. I hope you understand my answer
