Answer:

[tex]x = 29[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will expand the equation using the rule

[tex]x(y - z) = xy - xz[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]4(2x - 1) - 3 = 9(x - 4)[/tex]

is equal to

[tex]8x - 4 - 3 = 9x - 36[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]8x - 7 = 9x - 36[/tex]

Add 36 to both sides:

[tex]8x + 29 = 9x[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]x = 29[/tex]
