3m + 2x=-3, solve for x

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{x =\frac{-3m-3}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3m + 2x=-3$

$\sf Subtract \ 3m \ from \ both \ sides.$

$3m + 2x-3m=-3-3m$

$2x=-3-3m$

$\sf Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 2.$

$\displaystyle \frac{2x}{2} =\frac{-3-3m}{2}$

$\displaystyle x =\frac{-3m-3}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

x=\frac{-3-3m}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

1st step: Subtract 3m from both sides. 3m+2x-3m=-3-3m

2nd step: Simplify. 2x=-3-3m

3rd step: Divide both sides by 2. \frac{2x}{2}=-\frac{3}{2}-\frac{3m}{2}

Final step: Simplify. x=\frac{-3-3m}{2}
