X = 6 after distributing then adding 39 to both sides and then divide by 13
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>To find "x"</u>, we need to <u>isolate it</u>. This means move "x" to the left side, and everything else to the right side.
When moving a number, do its <u>reverse operation</u> to the entire equation.
x + 9 = 2x - 3
x - 2x + 9 = 2x - 2x - 3 Subtract 2x from both sides
-x + 9 = -3
-x + 9 - 9 = -3 - 9 Subtract 9 from both sides
-x = -12
-x/-1 = -12/-1 Divide both sides by -1 to get rid of the negatives
x = 12 Final answer
Check your answer. Split the equation for the left and right sides. Substitute "x" for the answer "12".
LS: (left side)
x + 9
= 12 + 9 Add
= 21
RS: (right side)
2x - 3
= 2(12) - 3 Multiply before subtracting
= 24 - 3 Subtract
= 21
Both sides equal to 21 when "x" is 12.
LS = RS left side equals right side
Therefore the answer is correct.

First you can count multiples of 7 all the way up to 84. 7,14,21,28,35,42,49,56,63,70,77,and 84.
Or you can do 7 x 12 equals 84.
Second write down the long division way 84/7.
7 goes into 8 one time write 7 at the top then write one at the bottom bring down the 4 and make it 14
you know 7 x 2 = 14 so 12 x 7 equals 14.
