Question

3(x + 9) = 2x + 60 find the value of x

Answer 1

$\sf \: 3(x + 9) = 2x + 60$

Distribute 3 throught parentheses.

$\sf \: 3x + 27 = 2x + 60$

Collect like terms.

$\sf \: 3x - 2x = 60 - 27$

$\boxed{ \sf \green{\implies \: x = 33}}$

Answer 2

Answer:

We will get the value of x is 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

• We have to evaluate the above expression by using the given data.

        Given data:- $3(x+9)=2x+60.$

        To find:- Value of x.

        Solution:-

• Here we will use the transposition method.

• Transposition is one of the linear equations.

• To solve the transposition method we will Identify the variables and constants.

• Then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Now Simplify the equation using arithmetic operations.

        $3(x+9)=2x+60\\=>3x+27=2x+60\\=>3x=2x+60-27\\=>3x=2x+33\\=>3x-2x=33\\=>x=33$
