Question

Solve the equation and verify your result 6 + 3( − 3) =16. *

Answer 1

Answer:

6 + 3 - 3 = 16

6 = 16................

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

6 + 3(x - 3) = 16

6 + 3x - 9 = 16

3x - 3 = 16

3x = 16 + 3

3x = 19

x = 19/3

Verify:

x = 19/3

6 + 3(x - 3) = 16

6 + 3(19/3 - 3) = 16

6 + 3(19 - 9/3) = 16

6 + 3×10/3 = 16

6 + 10 = 16

16 = 16
