Question

Simplify and Explain This Equation

-8-3(9-2x)+9x

Answer 1

-8-27+6x+9x
First you distribute the -3 to the 9 and -2x in the parentheses

-35+15x
Then you simplify by adding the -8 to the -27 and the 6x to the 9x

-7+3x
Finally, if you want to simplify it further you can divide both sides by 5
