Solve for x. 13(6x−9)=−33 (1 point) Responses x = -30 x = -30 x = -15 x = -15 x = -22 x = -22 x = -19

3 answers

To solve for x, we will first simplify the equation:
13(6x−9)=−33
Distribute 13 to both terms inside the parentheses:
78x - 117 = -33
Next, isolate x by adding 117 to both sides of the equation:
78x - 117 + 117 = -33 + 117
78x = 84
Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 78 to solve for x:
78x/78 = 84/78
x = 1.0769230769230769
Therefore, the correct answer is x = 1.0769230769230769.
