Question

simplify. fan and medal for answer

-4.5[2X-(0.5-1.4)]

Answer 1

Okay I believe this is how you do it... so you need to start by simplifying the (0.5-1.4) which equals -0.9

Then you need to distribute. So you need to take -4.5 and multiply it by 2x, then take -4.5 and multiply it by -0.9. Which you get: -9x+4.05

Once you get that answer, you need to set the equation to zero and subtract the number that doesn't have an x attached to it. -9x=-4.05

Lastly, you have to take -9 and divide it by -4.05 which gets you: x=0.45

Answer 2

it would be 1.25
