Hi there!

First we need to work out the parenthesis, which can for instance be done using rainbow technique.

Now subtract 3 from both sides.

And finally add 3x to both sides.

The 4th answer choice is correct.
Answer:
the lengths of the sides of the yard.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2)
Distributive property
1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9
1.5x + 3 = 4.5x - 9
1.5x - 4.5x = -9 -3
-3x = -12
x = 4
No they would be intersecting. x=-1 is a vertical line down the x axis on -1. y=2 is a horizontal line at 2 on the y axis.
