Question

What is the answer and steps to this equation -3(3+x)+4(x-6)=-4

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(3 + x) + 4(x - 6) = -4

Distribute -3 by the first set of parentheses and distribute 4 by the second set of parentheses.

-9 - 3x + 4x - 24 = -4

Collect like terms on the left side.

x - 33 = -4

Add 33 to both sides.

x = 29
