Question

An equation is shown below:
3(2x – 7) = 3

Part A: How many solutions does this equation have? (4 points)

Part B: What are the solutions to this equation? Show your work. (6 points)

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A: One | Part B: x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(2x-7)=3\\6x-21=3\\6x=24\\x=4$

Answer 2

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x _7)=3

multiply 3 by everything in the bracket

6x-21 = 3

move 21 to the other side of the equation,it becomes positive sine it crosses the = sign

6x = 3+21

6x =24

divide both sides by 6

6x/6=24/6

x = 4
