Answer:
x = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To eliminate the fraction multiply all terms on both sides by 3
(x - 3) - 3x + 9 = 6(x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
x - 3 - 3x + 9 = 6x - 6
- 2x + 6 = 6x - 6 ( subtract 6x from both sides )
- 8x + 6 = - 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
- 8x = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 8 )
x = [tex]\frac{-12}{-8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] = 1.5
