Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3(x - 3) = 3x , that is
3x - 9 = 3x ( add 9 to both sides )
3x = 3x + 9 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
0 = 9 ← not possible
This indicates the equation has no solution
The other factor is eight because 9 multiplied by eight is 72 and a negative times a positive is a negative
