Answer: x = -0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given expression</u>
1 - 3 (9x + 3) = 3x + 1
<u>Expand parentheses and apply the distributive property</u>
1 - 27x - 9 = 3x + 1
<u>Combine like terms</u>
(1 - 9) - 27x = 3x + 1
-8 - 27x = 3x + 1
<u>Subtract 3x on both sides</u>
-8 - 27x - 3x = 3x + 1 - 3x
-8 - 30x = 1
<u>Add 8 on both sides</u>
-8 - 30x + 8 = 1 + 8
-30x = 9
<u>Divide - 30 on both sides</u>
(-30)x / (-30) = 9 / (-30)
(-30)x / (-30) = 3 / (-10)
Hope this helps!! :)
