3. If 2x +9 32, then x could be
11.5?

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see step by step how to solve for x, and get 11.5:

2x+9=32

Subtrract the 9 from both sides. You should always try to get the number on one side, and the variable on the other:

2x+9-9=32-9

=

2x=23

In the end, once the number values are on one side, and the variable value on the other, you want you varaible to be 1.

When I mean 1, I mean you want 1x, or just x.

Here we see 2x=23, meaning we need to divide both sides by 2, to get 1x:

2x/2=23/2

=

x=11.5

So x equals 11.5, and you were correct.

Hope this helps!
