Answer:
x = -11
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 23 + 9 = x + 21
Combine common factors
2x + 32 = x + 21
Subtract x from both sides
x + 32 = 21
Subtract 32 from both sides
x = -11
3/7 = 9/x
cross multiply because thats how u solve proportions
(3)(x) = (7)(9)
3x = 63
x = 63/3
x = 21
and if u will notice : 3/7 and 9/21 ....9/21 reduces to 3/7....so these are equivalent fractions...because proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions
