Hello!
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.<span><span><span>
1.5<span>(<span>x+4</span>)</span></span>−3</span>=<span>4.5<span>(<span>x−2</span>)</span></span></span><span><span><span><span><span><span>
(1.5)</span><span>(x)</span></span>+<span><span>(1.5)</span><span>(4)</span></span></span>+</span>−3</span>=<span><span><span>(4.5)</span><span>(x)</span></span>+<span><span>(4.5)</span><span>(<span>−2</span>)</span></span></span></span>(Distribute)<span><span><span><span><span>

(<span>1.5x</span>)</span>+<span>(<span>6+<span>−3</span></span>)</span></span>=<span><span>4.5x</span>−9</span></span>(Combine Like Terms)<span><span><span>
1.5x</span>+3</span>=<span><span>4.5x</span>−9</span></span><span><span><span>
</span></span></span>Step 2: Subtract 4.5x from both sides.<span><span><span><span>
1.5x</span>+3</span>−<span>4.5x</span></span>=<span><span><span>4.5x</span>−9</span>−<span>4.5x</span></span></span><span><span><span>
−<span>3x</span></span>+3</span>=<span>−9</span></span>
Step 3: Subtract 3 from both sides.<span><span><span><span>
−<span>3x</span></span>+3</span>−3</span>=<span><span>−9</span>−3</span></span><span><span>
−<span>3x</span></span>=<span>−12</span></span>
Step 4: Divide both sides by -3.<span><span><span>
−<span>3x</span></span><span>−3</span></span>=<span><span>−12</span><span>−3</span></span></span><span>

Answer:
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following system of equations:
and 
To solve the problem, we need to equal the two equations:
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
So you need to find two numbers that added equal to 5 and multiplied equal to 4. These two numbers are 
and 
.
Then, the factorized form of the polynomial is: 
.
The, the solution to the system of equations is: and .
144/36 in lowest terms is 4.
To show my work, here.
1. Find the GCF of 144 and 36 so now we divide (144/36 = 4 and 36/36 is 1)
2. Now we have 4/1 so we simplify again so divide 4/1 and its 4
