solve the equation\

3(3x+4)-6x=-9

1 answer

To solve the equation 3(3x+4) - 6x = -9, distribute the 3 on the left side:

9x + 12 - 6x = -9

Combine like terms:

(9x - 6x) + 12 = -9

3x + 12 = -9

Now, subtract 12 from both sides:

3x + 12 - 12 = -9 - 12
3x = -21

Finally, divide both sides by 3:

3x/3 = -21/3
x = -7

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -7.
