Question

Yo fam for me

45 = 3(x + 1)

Answer 1

Here is the answer !

Answer 2

x = 14

Explanation:

Solving equation

3(x + 1) = 45

3*x + 3*1 = 45 {Distributive property used: a*(b+c) =(a*b) +(a*c)}

3x + 3 = 45

Subtract 3 from both sides

3x = 45 - 3

3x = 42

Divide both sides by 3

x = 42/3

`\sf \boxed{\bf x = 14}`
