Question

What is the value of x in the equation 2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x?
O x= -3
O x= -1
O x = 0
O x= 3

Answer 1

Answer:

  x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

  2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x . . . . given equation

  2x -6 +9 = 3x +3 +x . . . . eliminate parentheses

  2x +3 = 4x +3 . . . . . . . . collect terms

  0 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract (2x +3)

  x = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Answer 2

Answer:

$x = 0$

Third answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(x - 3) + 9 = 3(x + 1) + x \\ 2x - 6 + 9 = 3x + 3 + x \\ 2x - 3x - x = 6 - 9 + 3 \\ - 2x = 0 \\ \frac{ - 2x}{2} = \frac{0}{2} \\ x = 0$
