[ Answer ]


\boxed{\bold{X \ = \ -8}}

[ Explanation ]

  • Solve For X: 6(x - 1) = 9(x + 2)

------------------------------

  • Expand 6(x - 1): 6x - 6

  • Expand 9(x + 2): 9x + 18

6x - 6 = 9x + 18

  • Add 6 To Both Sides

6x - 6 + 6 = 9x + 18 + 6

  • Simplify

6x = 9x + 24

  • Subtract 9x From Both Sides

6x - 9x = 9x + 24 - 9x

  • Simplify

-3x = 24

  • Divide Both Sides By -3


(-3x)/(-3) =
(24)/(-3)

  • Simplify

X = -8


\boxed{\bold{[] \ Eclipsed \ []}}}
