Question

-2x-3=9 solve for x
​

Answer 1

Answer:

If -2x-3=9  then x = -6 .

Step-by-step explanation:

If -2x-3=9

Then first add 3 on both side

-2x - 3 + 3 = 9 + 3

-2x = 12

Now divide both sides by -2

-2x ÷ (-2) = 12 ÷( -2)

x = - 6

Answer 2

Here we are given an equation -2x - 3 = 9

We have to solve the equation for the value of x

So, in order to find the value of x, we will rearrange the equation a shown below

-2x - 3 = 9

       -2x = 9 + 3

        -2x = 12

           x = -12/2

           x = -6

Hence, the value of x will be -6
