To solve the equation \( 3\left|6-\frac{3}{2} x\right|+6=15 \), we start by isolating the absolute value. Subtract 6 from both sides: \[ 3\left|6-\frac{3}{2} x\right| = 9 \] Next, divide both sides by 3: \[ \left|6-\frac{3}{2} x\right| = 3 \] Now, we can set up two equations based on the definition of absolute value: 1. \( 6 - \frac{3}{2} x = 3 \) 2. \( 6 - \frac{3}{2} x = -3 \) For the first equation: \[ 6 - \frac{3}{2} x = 3 \] Subtract 6 from both sides: \[ -\frac{3}{2} x = -3 \] Divide both sides by -\(\frac{3}{2}\): \[ x = 2 \] Now, for the second equation: \[ 6 - \frac{3}{2} x = -3 \] Subtract 6 from both sides: \[ -\frac{3}{2} x = -9 \] Divide both sides by -\(\frac{3}{2}\): \[ x = 6 \] Thus, the solutions to the equation are \( x = 2 \) and \( x = 6 \).
