Not 40/30 but 40/3 (3/2(x) = 20 x = 20*(2/3) x = 40/3 = 13.333) Or 13 1/3

If you mean
(3/2)x - 4 = 16
then
(3/2)x = 20
x = 40/3
which is 13 1/3

To solve the equation 3/2x - 4 = 16, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Add 4 to both sides of the equation to isolate the variable term.
3/2x - 4 + 4 = 16 + 4
3/2x = 20
Step 2: To get rid of the fraction, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2/3.
(2/3)(3/2x) = (2/3)(20)
x = (2/3)(20)
Now let's simplify the expression on the right side:
x = 40/3
The answer in mixed number format is:
x ≈ 13 1/3
So, the correct answer is B. x = 13 1/3.
