Answer:
x= 5.25
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to get x alone, so do inverse operations.
(Basically, reverse what it is)
4(x-3)=9
divide 4 by both sides to get rid of 4 on left side
9/4 = 2.25
(x-3) = 2.25
Now add 3 to both sides, to get x alone
2.25 + 3 = 5.25
x=5.25
Check work
4(5.25-3) = 9
4(2.25) = 9
9=9
