Question

Solve the equation for X 3(2x - 3) = 7 - 2x

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by distributing the 3 to what is in the parentheses.

3 times 2x = 6x.

3 times -3 = -9.

So now you have:

6x - 9 = 7 - 2x.

You want to get the x variables on one side.

So add the 2x to both sides.

8x - 9 = 7.

You want to get x by itself.

So add 9 to both sides.

8x = 16.

x = 2.
