Given the equation:
2x - 3
Determine the equivalent expression.
Solution:
In order to determine the equivalent expression, we simply needed to transpose -3 to the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing a number, the sign changes.
2x - 3 = 0
2x = 3
Divide both sides by 2 in order to determine the value of x.
2x = 3
2x/2 = 3/2
x = 3/2
Final answer:
x = 3/2
