Question

-43 – 9x = -7 – 3(5x + 6) Answer?

Answer 1

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

-43 - 9x = -7 - 15x - 18

-43 - 9x = -15x - 25

15x -9x = 43 -25

6x = 18

x = 3

Answer 2

Answer:

Simplifying

9x + 7 = 5x + -3

Reorder the terms:

7 + 9x = 5x + -3

Reorder the terms:

7 + 9x = -3 + 5x

Solving

7 + 9x = -3 + 5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.

7 + 9x + -5x = -3 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 9x + -5x = 4x

7 + 4x = -3 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0

7 + 4x = -3 + 0

7 + 4x = -3

Add '-7' to each side of the equation.

7 + -7 + 4x = -3 + -7

Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0

0 + 4x = -3 + -7

4x = -3 + -7

Combine like terms: -3 + -7 = -10

4x = -10

Divide each side by '4'.

x = -2.5

Simplifying

x = -2.5
