Question

Solve for x: 3(x + 1) = 2(x - 1)
-5
-4
-2
-1

Answer 1

The answer would be x=-5

Answer 2

Answer:

D  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x+1) = 2(x-1)

Use distributive property and get;

3x+3 = 2x-2

Add 2 to both sides,

3x+5 = 2x+4

Subtract 2x from both sides

1x+5 = 4

Subtract 5 from both sides

1x=-1

x = -1
