1/2(4x-6)=15 please help

This looks more like algebra to me.

1/2(4x-6)=15

2x - 3 = 15

2x = 18

x = 9

no i have to have two column proofs for this

the work and property names

Thank you Mrs. Sue i got it

You're welcome, Selena.

To solve the equation 1/2(4x - 6) = 15, we will follow these steps:

Step 1: Simplify the expression on the left side of the equation:
Distribute the 1/2 to both terms inside the parentheses:
1/2 * 4x = 4x/2 = 2x
1/2 * -6 = -6/2 = -3

Therefore, the equation becomes 2x - 3 = 15.

Step 2: Isolate the variable on one side of the equation:
We will add 3 to both sides of the equation:
2x - 3 + 3 = 15 + 3
2x = 18

Step 3: Solve for x:
To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by 2:
(2x) / 2 = 18 / 2
x = 9

So, the solution to the equation 1/2(4x - 6) = 15 is x = 9.
