Answer:

x = -7

How to:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation

5°x-(2°x-9)=0

Pull out like factors:

21 + 3x = 3 • (x + 7)

Equations which are never true: Solve 3 = 0

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

Solve : x+7 = 0

Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation : x = -7
