Answer:
[tex]x = 29[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First we will expand the equation using the rule
[tex]x(y - z) = xy - xz[/tex]
Thus,
[tex]4(2x - 1) - 3 = 9(x - 4)[/tex]
is equal to
[tex]8x - 4 - 3 = 9x - 36[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]8x - 7 = 9x - 36[/tex]
Add 36 to both sides:
[tex]8x + 29 = 9x[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]x = 29[/tex]
