x=3

You want to solve for x so:

anonymous · Answer

you're solving the variables on both sides, therefore you have to take away the variables first.

Wouln't it say solve for x if I needed to solve for x?

anonymous · Answer

3x - 6 = -2x + 9
Get X over on one side
Add 2x from both sides
5x - 6 = 9
5x = 15
x = 15/5
x = 3

anonymous · Answer

its the only variable there @BadMath021402

anonymous · Answer

If there's x in it, then you know that you will be wanting to solve for x. It's the only possibility. :)
