Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

3 - 2x = -1.5x

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Add 2x on both sides:                    3 = 0.5x
  2. Divide 0.5 on both sides:               6 = x
  3. Rewrite:                                           x = 6

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in<em> x</em>:                    3 - 2(6) = -1.5(6)
  2. Multiply:                               3 - 12 = -9
  3. Subtract:                              -9 = -9

Here we see that -9 does indeed equal -9.

∴ x = 6 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:

x= 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3-2x= -1.5x

-3       -3

-2x= -1.5x - 3

+1.5x   +1.5x

-.5x= -3

divide both sides by -.5

<u>x = 6</u>
