Solve by a 1 variable equation - 3 (x-3) = x+9-4x

-3 (x - 3) = x + 9 - 4x

Firstly, before we simplify the whole thing altogether, let's simplify each respective side. Distribute accordingly on the left side (the number outside the parentheses is distributed to the numbers inside the parentheses), and we can add the numbers with variables together on the right side.

-3x + 9 = - 3x + 9

Now, let's add 3x to both sides, to simplify both sides now. This leaves us with: 1, I believe, since - 3 : - 3 is 1.

x = x, and since x also equals to 1, our answer is 1. And once you check, substituting 1 for x, you will find that 1 is the correct answer.
