Hello!


======================================

First, let's move all the x's to the left:

3x+4=9x+3

3x-9x+4=3

Now, move 4 to the right:

3x-9x=3-4

Combine Like Terms:

-6x=-1

Divide both sides by -6:

x=
\displaystyle(1)/(6)


=========================================

Notes:

  • Hope everything is clear.
