9(x+3) = 4x -3

OpenStudy (suwhitney):

First distribute the 9 out to the (x+3) so 9x+27=4x-3

OpenStudy (suwhitney):

Then you can move the -3 over to the left side which would make it 30. So 9x+30=4x

OpenStudy (suwhitney):

Then move the 9x to the right side to make it 50=-5x

OpenStudy (suwhitney):

Then divide everything by -5. So x=-10 :)
