Question

Solve the equation for x​

Answer 1

x = 33

Step 1:

First, let's add the values together from both parentheses.

2x + x = 3x

1 + (-10) = -9

Now we are left with:

3x - 9 = 90.

Step 2:

Add 9 on the left side to cancel out the 9. Add it to the right side.

3x = 99

Finally, divide both sides by 3 to get our answer.

3x / 3 = x

99 / 3 = 33

x = 33
