Answer:

X=0

Explanation:

Since x is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation.

3(x+1)+x=2(x−3)+93(x+1)+x=2(x-3)+9

Simplify the left side.

4x+3=2(x−3)+94x+3=2(x-3)+9

Simplify 2(x−3)+92(x-3)+9.

4x+3=2x+34x+3=2x+3

Move all terms containing xx to the left side of the equation.

2x+3=32x+3=3

Move all terms not containing xx to the right side of the equation.

2x=02x=0

Divide each term by 22 and simplify.

x=0
