Question

3(x - 5) + 2 (3x + 1) = 45 solve for x

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of the equation for x is $x=\frac{58}{9}$ .  

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

$3(x - 5) + 2 (3x + 1) = 45$

Open the parentheses.

$3x - 15 + 6x + 2 = 45$

Now add the like terms.

$3x +6x- 15+ 2 = 45$

$9x- 13 = 45$

Add 13 from both sides.

$9x- 13+13= 45+13$

$9x= 58$

Divide both the sides by 9.

$\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{58}{9}$

$x=\frac{58}{9}$

Hence, the value of the equation for x is $x=\frac{58}{9}$ .  

Answer 2

Answer:

6.444.... or 6&4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-5)+2(3x+1)=45<------distributive property

3x-15+6x+2=45    <------combine like terms

9x-13=45              <------addition property of equality

9x=58                   <------division property of equality

x=6.444...
