Question 86336: Solve each of the following equations for x, and check your results.
3x – 5(3x – 7) = 2(x + 9) + 45
3x -15x = 2x + 63 + 35
-12x -2x = 63 - 35
-14x = 28
x=28/-14 x=-2

3x-5(3x-7)=2(x+9)+45
==>3x-15x+35=2x+18+45
==>-12x-2x= 63-35
==>-14x = 28
==>x= 28/-14 x=-2
verify: 3x-5(3x-7)=2(x+9)+45
3(-2)-5(3.-2-7)=2(-2+9)+45
-6 -5(-6-7)= 2(7)+45
-6-5(-13)=14+45
-6+65 = 59
59=59 Therefore L.H.S=R.H.S
