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
