If you're looking for all it's forms,

Exact form:
(3)/(2) (or 3/2)

Decimal form: 1.5

Mixed Number form:
1(1)/(2) (or 1 1/2)

OR

Two solutions because it's a quadratic equation:

1. x = -1/2 = -0.500

2. x = 2

Answer:

1 solution (x = 1.5)

Explanation:

2x + 2 - 3x = 3x - 4

First, combine like terms

2 - x = 3x - 4

Add 4 to both sides

6 - x = 3x

Add x to both sides

6 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4

1.5 = x
