6(4x + 5) = 3(x + 8) + 3 Multiply 6 into (4x + 5)
24x + 30 = 3(x + 8) + 3 Multiply 3 into (x + 8)
24x + 30 = 3x + 24 + 3 Combine like terms
24x + 30 = 3x + 27 Subtract 3x on both sides
21x + 30 = 27 Subtract 30 on both sides
21x = -3 Divide 21 on both sides
x = -0.14
6(4x + 5) = 3(x + 8) + 3
Distribute
24x + 30 = 3x + 24 + 3
Move like terms to be on the same side
24x - 3x = 24 + 3 - 30
21x = 27 - 30
21x = -3
x = -3/21
x = -1/7
x = -0.142857
If its rounded to the nearest hundredth, your answer is:
-0.14
