    x = 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    2 (1.5 - x) + 42 = 103 - 4 (3x + 7) ← distribute and simplify both sides

    3 - 2x + 42 = 103 - 12x - 28

    - 2x + 45 = 75 - 12x (add 12x to both sides)

    10x + 45 = 75 (subtract 45 from both sides)

    10x = 30 (divide both sides by 3)

    x = 3
