Answer: x=−3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

15x+9=3(2x−6)

15x+9=(3)(2x)+(3)(−6)(Distribute)

15x+9=6x+−18

15x+9=6x−18

Step 2: Subtract 6x from both sides.

15x+9−6x=6x−18−6x

9x+9=−18

Step 3: Subtract 9 from both sides.

9x+9−9=−18−9

9x=−27

Step 4: Divide both sides by 9.

9x/9 = -27/9

x=−3

Answer:

x= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's work on the right side and use distributive property

15x+9= 3(2x-6)

15x+9= 6x-18

    -9         -9

15x= 6x-27

-6x  -6x

9x= -27

9x/9= -27/9

x= -3

Hope this helps!

Use the digits 2,3,and 5 to create a fraction and a whole number with a product greater than 2
mylen [45]

Product is multiplication.

Since the answer needs to be greater than 2 either the fraction needs to be an improper fraction ( meaning the fraction would be greater than 1) or the whole number would need to be greater than 2.


One answer would be 5 x 2/3 = 3 1/3
