Solve for x. 2(1.5x−7)=6 (1 point) Responses x = 0.67 x = 0.67 x = 7 x = 7 x = 6.67 x = 6.67 x = 9.5 x = 9.5

Answer 1

To solve for x, we will first distribute the 2 to the terms inside the parentheses:

2 * 1.5x - 2 * 7 = 6

Now we simplify the equation:

3x - 14 = 6

Next, we add 14 to both sides of the equation to isolate the x term:

3x - 14 + 14 = 6 + 14
3x = 20

Finally, we divide both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for x:

3x/3 = 20/3
x = 20/3

Therefore, the answer is x = 6.67.
