Question

2/3(9x-21)=22 Find the value of X


pls help, I got -6 and the calc said 6

Answer 1

x = 6

Explanation:

Let's clear out the fractions. Multply both sides by 3/2, obtaining:

(3/2)(2/3)(9x - 21) = (3/2)(22), or

9x - 21 = 33

Isolate x by adding 21 to both sides: 9x = 54

If 9x = 54, then x = 6

Answer 2

6

Explanation:

2/3(9x-21)=22 distribute

6x-14=22 add 14 to both sides

6x=36 divide by 6 on each side

x=6

hope it helps:)
