Solve -3(2x - 9) = -3.

1 answer

Using the distributive property, we can simplify the left side of the equation.

-3(2x - 9) = -3
-6x + 27 = -3

Now, we want to try to get x by itself on one side of the equation. We can start by subtracting 27 from both sides:

-6x = -30

Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by -6:

x = 5

Therefore, the solution to the equation -3(2x - 9) = -3 is x = 5.
