Answer:

option (b) is correct.

The value of x in the equation 1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2) is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation 1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2)

We have to solve for x,

Consider the given equation 1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2)

Simplify both side by multiplying 1.5 with each term in bracket on left side, and multiplying 4.5 with each term in bracket on right side, we get,

1.5x + 6 – 3 = 4.5x – 9

Now, simplify both sides, we get,

1.5x + 3 = 4.5x – 9

Taking like terms one side, we get,

4.5x - 1.5x = 9 + 3

Simplify, we get,

3 x = 12

divide both side by 3 , we get,

x = 4

Thus, the value of x in the equation 1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2) is 4.

Thus, option (b) is correct.

The correct answer is 4

1.5 (4+4) -3 = 9

Answer:

A. Positive linear.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that both variables increases, then we have a positive relation. A curvilinear option can not be possible because with this option in some regions could happen that when one variable increases the other one decreases. The negative linear relation can no be because with this option when one variable increases the other decreases. A non linear option is the same as a curvilinear option then can not be possible. Then the best option is a positive linear relationship.
