Justify your steps

Answer 1

x=0

Explanation:

-3/2(x-2) +1=4

Subtract 1 from each side by the subtraction property of equality

-3/2(x-2) +1-1=4-1

-3/2 (x-2) = 3

Multiply each side by -2/3 by the multiplication property of equality

-2/3 * -3/2 (x-2) = 3 *-2/3

Simplify

x-2 = -2

Add 2 to each side by the addition property of equality

x-2+2 = -2+2

x=0
