Answer:

The correct answer is -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

it is -2 because if you replaced -2 with a you would have -2 minus 1.5 which is -0.5. -0.5 multiplied by 3 gets you -1.5.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(a + 1.5) = -1.5

3a + 3*1.5 = -1.5

3a + 4.5 = -1.5

Subtract 4.5 from both sides

3a + 4.5 - 4.5 = -1.5 - 4.5

3a +0 = - 6.0

3a = - 6

Divide both sides by 3

3a/3 = -6/3

a = -2
