➣ Answer:
\boxed{\bold{x=-8}}

↔↔↔↔↔↔↔↔

Explanation: ↓↓↓↓↓

↔↔↔↔↔↔↔↔

➤ [ Step One ] Multiply Both Sides By 100


\bold{0.75x\cdot \:100-0.5\cdot \:100=x\cdot \:100+1.5\cdot \:100}

➤ [ Step Two ] Refine


\bold{75x-50=100x+150}

➤ [ Step Three ] Add 50 To Both Sides


\bold{75x-50+50=100x+150+50}

➤ [ Step Four ] Simplify


\bold{75x=100x+200}

➤ [ Step Five ] Subtract 100x From Both Sides


\bold{75x-100x=100x+200-100x}

➤ [ Step Six ] Simplify


\bold{-25x=200}

➤ [ Step Seven ] Divide Both Sides By -25


\bold{(-25x)/(-25)=(200)/(-25)}

➤ [ Step Eight ] Simplify


\bold{x=-8}

Answer: -8

Explanation:

Start by simplifying : 0.75x + -0.5 = x + 1.5

Reorder: -0.5 + 0.75x = x + 1.5

Solve: -0.5 + 0.75x = x + 1.5

Then you should get the answer
