Enter your math answer
5
Solve the following equation: *
3(2x - 5) = 9x + 24
Enter your math answer

Answer 1

4. x = 11

5. x = -13

Explanation:

4. 3x + 7 = 5x - 15

-7 -7

3x = 5x - 22

-5x -5x

-2x = -22

-2x/-2 = -22/-2

x = 11

5. 3(2x - 5) = 9x + 24

6x - 15 = 9x + 24

+15 +15

6x = 9x + 39

-9x -9x

-3x = 39

-3x/-3 = 39/-3

x = -13

Hope this helps, have a great day:)
