x = 0.67
x = 0.67

x = 7
x = 7

x = 6.67
x = 6.67

x = 9.5

Answer 1

To solve for x, we will solve the equation step by step:

2(1.5x - 7) = 6

First, distribute the 2:

3x - 14 = 6

Next, add 14 to both sides:

3x = 20

Finally, divide both sides by 3:

x = 20/3 = 6.67

So the solution is x = 6.67.
