Step-by-step explanation:
By putting the numbers in the given equation,
2x + 3 + 3x = 7x + 9
5x + 3 = 7x + 9
(5x + 3) - 7x = (7x + 9) - 7x
(5x - 7x) + 3 = 9
-2x + 3 = 9
(-2x + 3) - 3 = 9 - 3
-2x = 6
-x = 3
x = -3
Therefore, our equation is correct which has a negative result.
In place of 6 if we use 8, value of x will be negative again.
