3x+4.5-4.5x=-18
Subtract 4.5x from both sides.
-1.5x+4.5=-18
Combine 3x and -4.5x to get -1.5x.
-1.5x=-18-4.5
Subtract 4.5 from both sides.
-1.5x=-22.5
Subtract 4.5 from -18 to get -22.5.
x=\frac{-22.5}{-1.5}
Divide both sides by -1.5.
x=\frac{-225}{-15}
Expand \frac{-22.5}{-1.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.
x=15
Divide -225 by -15 to get 15.
