Question

Solve for x
-18 = 9 - 3x

Answer 1

Rewrite the equation so that the x term is on the left:

9 - 3x = -18

Move the number to the right and change the sign:

-3x = -18 - 9

-3x = -27

Change the sign of both terms:

3x = 27

Move the 3 to the right and change the sign:

x = 27 ÷ 3

x = 9 is your answer.

Answer 2

3x=9+18

=27

x =27÷3

x=9

the answer of x is 9
