Answer 1

x=-7

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−2(3x+9)=24

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2(3x+9)=24

(−2)(3x)+(−2)(9)=24(Distribute)

−6x+−18=24

−6x−18=24

Step 2: Add 18 to both sides.

−6x−18+18=24+18

−6x=42

Step 3: Divide both sides by -6.

−6x /−6

= 42 /−6

x=−7
