Question

-3 (e - 6) = 39 please show your work

Answer 1

Here's the answer

Given Equation =>>

$\sf{-3( e - 6 ) = 39}$


Now,

Opening the brackets ,

$\sf{ - 3e + 18 = 39}$

Taking the term 18 to the R.H.S,

$\sf{ - 3e = 39 - 18} \\ \\ \sf{ - 3e = 21}$

$\sf{- e = \frac{21}{3} =7}$

Multiplying ( -1 ) to the both sides

$\sf{( - e) \times (- 1) = 7 \times ( - 1)}$
$\sf{ \therefore{e = - 7}}$

Thus,

Value of e is -7.
