Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Distribute

3(2 + x) = -3

(3 * 2) + (3 * x) = -3

(6) + (3x) = -3

Step 2: Subtract 6 from both sides

6 + 3x - 6 = -3 - 6

3x = -9

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3

3x / 3 = -9 / 3

x = -3

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2+x)= -3

Divide each side by 3

3/3 (2+x)= -3/3

2+x = -1

Subtract 2 from each side

2+x-2 = -1-2

x = -3
