Question

solve the following lonear equation
$4 (x + 3) = x - 3$
$6x = 2x + 8$
​

Answer 1

Answer:

$4(x + 3) = x - 3 \\ \\ = 4x + 12 = x - 3 \\ \\ = 4x - x = - 3 - 12 \\ \\ 3x = - 15 \\ \\ x = \frac{ - 15}{3} \\ \\ x = - 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

$6x = 2x + 8 \\ \\ = 6x - 2x = 8 \\ \\ 4x = 8 \\ \\ x = \frac{8}{4} \\ \\ x = 2$
