Question

-3(2x - 9) = 3(16-x)

Answer 1

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x +27 = 48 - 3x

-3x =21

x=-7

Answer 2

Answer:

• $-3\left(2x-9\right)=3\left(16-x\right)$

• $-3\left(2x-9\right)$

• $=-3\cdot \:2x-\left(-3\right)\cdot \:9$

• $-3\cdot \:2x+3\cdot \:9$

• $=-6x+3\cdot \:9$

• $=-6x+27$

• $3\left(16-x\right)$

• $=3\cdot \:16-3x$

• $=48-3x$

• $-6x+27=48-3x$

• $-6x+27-27=48-3x-27$

• $-6x=-3x+21$

• $-6x+3x=-3x+21+3x$

• $-3x=21$

• $\frac{-3x}{-3}=\frac{21}{-3}$

• $x=-7$
