Hi there!
The Eqn. is :-
1.5 (x + 4) - 3 = 4.5 (x - 2)
1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9
Combining the like terms :-
1.5x - 4.5x = - 9 - 6 + 3
- 3x = - 15 + 3
- 3x = - 12
x =

x = 4
Hence, the required answer is → x = 4
~ Hope it helps!
Y = -41.
EXPLANATION.
if -5 is the midpoint, it must be -5 + 36.
Because there is 36 numbers between 31 and -5.
So -5 + 36 = -41.
Step-by-step explanation:
Using absolute value to tell wether the sum of two integers is positive or negative.
Suppose we have a positive integer,
x and a negative interger, -x and we want to find their sum, we take the absolute values of each of the integers, that is |x| and |-x|. Then we subtract these values: |x| - |-x|. If the larger integer is positive, the result of the difference is positive, but if the larger number is negative, the result of the difference is negative.
For any integer x, x + (-x) = 0
