Which equation has solution x = -3?
A)	2x - 7 = -1	
B)	3x + 8 = 1	
C) 1/2x + 8 = 10	
D) 1/2(2x - 6) = -6

i think i typed it wrong

jackthegreatest · Answer

ahh yes that makes a difference

jackthegreatest · Answer

the answer is D because:
1/2 (2(-3) -6) = -6
1/2 (-6-6) = -6
1/2 (-12) = -6
-6=-6
