To solve the equation 3(x+1) = 9+2x, we will distribute the 3 to the terms inside the parentheses:
3x + 3 = 9 + 2x
Next, we will combine like terms by subtracting 2x from both sides:
3x - 2x + 3 = 9 + 2x - 2x
Simplifying, we have:
x + 3 = 9
Finally, we can isolate x by subtracting 3 from both sides:
x + 3 - 3 = 9 - 3
This gives us the solution:
x = 6
3x + 3 = 9 + 2x
Next, we will combine like terms by subtracting 2x from both sides:
3x - 2x + 3 = 9 + 2x - 2x
Simplifying, we have:
x + 3 = 9
Finally, we can isolate x by subtracting 3 from both sides:
x + 3 - 3 = 9 - 3
This gives us the solution:
x = 6
