Answer: 34

Explanation:

The given equation:
4 (x - 3) = x + 9 0

To find:
x

First we use distributive property in the left sides of the equation , we get


4* x-4* 3= x+90\\\\\Rightarrow\ 4x-12=x+90\\\\\Rightarrow\ 4x-x=90+12\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3x=102\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=(102)/(3)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=34

Hence, x= 34.
