Answer:
first is 3.5, second is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
-4.5 = x + 2x - 6
-4.5 - 6 = 3x
10.5 = 3x
10.5/3 = x
3.5 = x
2(3.5) - 6
7 - 6

Answer:
3x-12 is the simplififed answer
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation is almost already simplified. when you combine -8 and -4, which are like terms, you get 3x-12. because there are no more lie temrs in the equation, it can not be simplififed any further.

Answer:
x ∈ (-∞, 9) U (-1, ∞)
Step-by-step explanation:
Get the absolute value by itself. Do that by multiplying by 4.
|3x +15| > 12
This resolves to two cases:
<u>3x +15 > 12</u>
x +5 > 4 . . . . divide by 3
x > -1 . . . . . . .subtract 5
<u>-(3x +15) > 12</u>
x +5 < -4 . . . . divide by -3
x < -9 . . . . . . . subtract 5
Then the solution in interval notation is ...
x ∈ (-∞, 9) U (-1, ∞)
