−23(3x−4)+3x=5619/6

A. 19/6
B. 11/6
C. 21/6
D. 29/6

Answer 1

Explanation:

−23(3x−4)+3x=5619/6 Remove brackets on the left. Divide by 6 on the right.

-69x - 92 + 3x = 936.5 Combine like terms on the left.

-66x - 92 = 936.5 Add 92 to both sides

-66x = 936.5 + 92

-66x = 1028.5 Divide by -66

x = -15 7/12
