Answer: x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the 3 and the 9
[tex]3(x+2)=9(6-x)\\3x+6=54-9x[/tex]
Add 9x to both sides
[tex]12x+6=54[/tex]
Subtract 6 on both sides and simplify
[tex]12x = 48\\x=4[/tex]
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
3 (x+2) = 9 (6-x)
3x + 6 = 54 - 9x
-6 = -6
3x = 48 - 9x
+9x +9x
12x = 48
/12 /12
x = 4
