Question

Does x=5 satisfy 3(x+1)=3x+3

Answer 1

Yes

Explanation:

Well let's solve it!

In order to solve this, plug in x into the equation.

Let's do the side on the LEFT of the equal sign first.

3(3+1) = 3(4) = 12

Now Let's do the side on the RIGHT of the equal sign.

3(3) + 3 = 9+3 = 12

So this means they are equal or congruent!
