Answer:

x=3

Explanation:

● -3 (-4x+4) = 15 + 3x

Multiply -3 by (-4x+4) first

● (-3) × (-4x) + (-3)×(4) = 15 + 3x

● 12 x - 12 = 15 +3x

Add 12 to both sides

● 12x - 12 + 12 = 15 + 3x +12

● 12 x = 27 + 3x

Substract 3x from both sides

● 12x -3x = 27 + 3x - 3x

● 9x = 27

Dividr both sides by 9

● 9x/9 = 27/9

● x = 3
