GPT 3.5
Statement | Reason
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. 1/2(4x - 6) = 15 | Given
2. 2 * 1/2(4x - 6) = 2 * 15 | Multiply both sides by 2
3. 1(4x - 6) = 30 | Simplify the left side
4. 4x - 6 = 30 | Multiply
5. 4x = 30 + 6 | Add 6 to both sides
6. 4x = 36 | Simplify
7. (1/4)(4x) = (1/4)(36) | Divide both sides by 4
8. x = 9 | Simplify and solve
