Answer:

x=7+1/2

Explanation:

We move all terms to the left:

3(x+4.5)-(36.)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3(x+4.5)-36=0

We multiply parentheses

3x+13.5-36=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3x-22.5=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

3x=22.5

x=22.5/3

x=7+1/2
