What is the value of x in the equation 2(x – 3) + 9 = 3(x + 1) + x?
x =

Start with

Expand both parentheses by multiplying both terms by the number outside:

Sum like terms:

Simplify the "+3" on both sides:

Subtract 2x from both sides:

Divide both sides by 2:

step-by-step explanation:

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !
