Glenn Porter · Answer 1

x = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6 (x - 1) = 9 (x + 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

6x - 6 = 9x + 18 (subtract 9x from both sides)

- 3x - 6 = 18 (add 6 to both sides)

- 3x = 24 (divide both sides by - 3)

x = - 8

Solve for x,6 (x - 1) = 9 (x + 2)x = - 81100 611111
