7x - 0.5 = 6 - 1.5(2x + 1)
7x - 0.5 = 6 - 3x - 1.5
Adding 3x to both sides:
7x + 3x - 0.5 = 6 - 1.5
10x - 0.5 = 6 - 1.5
Adding 0.5 to both sides:
10x = 6 - 1.5 + 0.5
10x = 5
Dividing by 10:
x = 0.5
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 0.5.
7x - 0.5 = 6 - 1.5(2x + 1)
7x - 0.5 = 6 - 3x - 1.5
Adding 3x to both sides:
7x + 3x - 0.5 = 6 - 1.5
10x - 0.5 = 6 - 1.5
Adding 0.5 to both sides:
10x = 6 - 1.5 + 0.5
10x = 5
Dividing by 10:
x = 0.5
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 0.5.
