Question

What is the solution to 34x + 95 = 3 (14X +9)

Answer 1

X=17/2
Decimal form : x=8.5

Answer 2

Answer: 17/2 or 8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 34x + 95 = 3(14x+9)

2. 34x + 95 = 42x + 27 (Distribute)

3. 34x - 42x + 95 = 27 (Subtract 42x from both sides)

4. 34x - 42x = 27 - 95 (Subtract 95 from both sides)

5. -8x = 27 - 95 (Combine like terms)

6. -8x = -68 (combine like terms)

7. x = 17/2 (divide both sides by -8)
