Question

Help idk how to do this please

Answer 1

`\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 2.5}}}}}`

Explanation:

`\sf{ (3)/(x - 1) = 2}`

Do cross multiplication

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{2(x - 1) = 3}}`

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{2x - 2 = 3}}`

Move 2 to right hand side and change it's sign

`\longrightarrow {\sf{2x = 3 + 2}}`

Add the numbers : 3 and 2

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{2x = 5}}`

Divide both sides by 2

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{ (2x)/(2) = (5)/(2)}}`

Calculate

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{x = 2.5}}`

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
