Question

Solve for : .
(1 point)
x 4x − 3 = 3x − 9
x = 5
x = 7
x = −6
x = −2

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 4x - 3 = 3x - 9 \), we can start by isolating \( x \).

1. First, subtract \( 3x \) from both sides:

\[
4x - 3x - 3 = -9
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
x - 3 = -9
\]

2. Next, add \( 3 \) to both sides to isolate \( x \):

\[
x = -9 + 3
\]

This gives us:

\[
x = -6
\]

So, the solution to the equation \( 4x - 3 = 3x - 9 \) is:

\[
\boxed{-6}
\]
