Question

Solve this equation -129=6(7+7x)-3

Answer 1

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

-129 = 6(7 + 7x) - 3

Distribute the 6 into the parentheses.

-129 = 42 + 42x - 3

Add like terms.

-129 = 39 +42x

Subtract 39 from both sides.

-168 = 42x

Divide 42 from both sides.

-4 = x

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

6(7 + 7x) - 3 = -129

=>42 + 42x - 3 = -129

=>39 + 42x = -129

=>42x = -129 - 39

=>42x = -168

=>x = -168/42

=>x = -4
