Question

Solve the equation and enter the value of x below. 6(x + 18) = 9x x = _____

Answer 1

Answer:

6(x + 18) = 9x x = __36__

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following equation

$6(x + 18) = 9x$

To solve the equation follow the next steps

1. Apply the distributive property

$6x + 6*18 = 9x$

$6x + 108 = 9x$

2. Subtract 6x on both sides of the equation

$6x -6x +108 = 9x-6x$

$108 = 3x$

$3x= 108$

3. Divide both sides of the equation by 3

$\frac{3}{3}x= \frac{108}{3}$

$x= 36$
