Question

Find the value of xif 3(x + 5 ) =-6​

Answer 1

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

A equation is given to us and we need to find out the value of x . The given equation is ,

$\longrightarrow 3( x +5)=-6$

Simplify the parenthesis ,

$\longrightarrow 3x + 3(5)=-6$

Simplify,

$\longrightarrow 3x +15 = -6$

Subtracting 15 to both sides ,

$\longrightarrow 3x =-6-15$

Simplify,

$\longrightarrow 3x = -21$

Divide both sides by 3,

$\longrightarrow x = -7$

This is the required answer!

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 5 ) = - 6​

3x + 15 = - 6

3x = - 6 - 15

3x = - 9

x = - 9/3

x = -3
