Answer:

x = 5

Explanation:

This equation can be rearranged in order to easily solve.

First, rearrange the equation by simply flipping it.

3x + 30 = 9x → 9x = 3x + 30

Then, you may solve for x.

9x = 3x + 30 subtract 3x from both sides of the equation

6x = 30 divide by 6 on both sides of the equation

x = 5
