Answers
hope it helps
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(6x + 14) + -1(9x + 5) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(14 + 6x) + -1(9x + 5) = 0
Remove parenthesis around (14 + 6x)
14 + 6x + -1(9x + 5) = 0
Reorder the terms:
14 + 6x + -1(5 + 9x) = 0
14 + 6x + (5 * -1 + 9x * -1) = 0
14 + 6x + (-5 + -9x) = 0
Reorder the terms:
14 + -5 + 6x + -9x = 0
Combine like terms: 14 + -5 = 9
9 + 6x + -9x = 0
Combine like terms: 6x + -9x = -3x
9 + -3x = 0
Solving
9 + -3x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9' to each side of the equation.
9 + -9 + -3x = 0 + -9
Combine like terms: 9 + -9 = 0
0 + -3x = 0 + -9
-3x = 0 + -9
Combine like terms: 0 + -9 = -9
-3x = -9
Divide each side by '-3'.
x = 3
Simplifying
x = 3
