Answer:
Simplifying
4x + 9 = 12x + -3
Reorder the terms:
9 + 4x = 12x + -3
Reorder the terms:
9 + 4x = -3 + 12x
Solving
9 + 4x = -3 + 12x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-12x' to each side of the equation.
9 + 4x + -12x = -3 + 12x + -12x
Combine like terms: 4x + -12x = -8x
9 + -8x = -3 + 12x + -12x
Combine like terms: 12x + -12x = 0
9 + -8x = -3 + 0
9 + -8x = -3
Add '-9' to each side of the equation.
9 + -9 + -8x = -3 + -9
Combine like terms: 9 + -9 = 0
0 + -8x = -3 + -9
-8x = -3 + -9
Combine like terms: -3 + -9 = -12
-8x = -12
Divide each side by '-8'.
x = 1.5
Simplifying
x = 1.5

Answer:
(-1,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
I graphed the equation on the graph below so you can see that (-1,-2) is a solution.
This is valid through the law of syllogism. If you swap lines 1 and 2, then you'll have this argument:
If I step on a beehive, then I will get stung.
If I get stung by a bee, then it will hurt.
Therefore, if I step on a beehive, then it will hurt
------------------
So it's like connecting a chain together. Point A (stepping on the hive), leads to point B (getting stung), which leads to point C (getting hurt). We can take a shortcut to bypass point B to jump from A to C in one step. Check out the attached image for a visual of what I'm referring to.
The answer is 4
Since 3.3x 4 is 13.2 and plus 3.0 is 16.2
