Question 520804: I am a little bit lost with this Algebra Equations, so here it is:
-7-2(x+4)=6x-(x-9)Please show me step by step. Thanks in Advance Answer by Earlsdon(6294) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve for x:
-7-2(x+4) = 6x-(x-9) Simplify.
-7-2x-8 = 6x-x+9 Notice the sign changes: -2(x+4) = -2x-8 and -(x-9) = -x+9 Simplify.
-15-2x = 5x+9 Add 2x to both sides.
-15 = 7x+9 Subtract 9 from both sides.
-24 = 7x Finally, divide both sides by 7.
