Question

Can someone explain to me how to do this lol, i'm kinda slow.
Solve: −3x−3 =12

Answer 1

start by adding \(3\) to both sides, to get rid of the \(-3\) on the left

Answer 2

add 3 to both sides, it will get rid of it on the side it is originating from, then divide by -3 and you will get -5

Answer 3

you get
\[-3x-3=12\] add 3 to get
\[-3x=12+3\] or \(-3x=15\)

Answer 4

First you would add three to both sides.
-3x = 15

then divide by -3
x = -5

Answer 5

once you have \(-3x=15\) divide both sides by \(-3\) do get
\[x=15\div -3\] or \(x=-5\)
