Answer:
x = 4.4
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve this question 2x+.5(x-4)=9 step by step
solution
2x+.5(x-4)=9
first step, open the bracket
2x+.5(x-4)=9
2x + 0.5x -2 =9
2x + 0.5x = 9 + 2....................................................... collecting the like terms
2.5x = 11
divide both sides by the coefficient of x
2.5x/72.5 = 11/2.5
x = 4.4
