Answer:

x=11/3

Explanation:

To solve this, you will need to isolate x.

We can add 2 to both sides to get 3x=9+2, or 3x=11

Then, we will divide both sides by three to isolate x entirely, giving us

3x/3=11/3 which becomes x=11/3.

As a decimal, this is 3.66666 repeating, and as a mixed number, this is 3 and 2/3
