Question

1/3(x-3)-x+3=2(x-1). Answer

Answer 1

Answer:

x = $\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To eliminate the fraction multiply all terms on both sides by 3

(x - 3) - 3x + 9 = 6(x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

x - 3 - 3x + 9 = 6x - 6

- 2x + 6 = 6x - 6 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

- 8x + 6 = - 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

- 8x = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 8 )

x = $\frac{-12}{-8}$ = $\frac{3}{2}$ = 1.5
