You can put this solution on YOUR website! 9-(3x-2)=21
9-3x+2=21
-3x=21-9-2
-3x=20
x=20/-3
x=-20/3 answer.
pROOF:
9-(3*-20/3-2)=21
9-(-10-2)=21
9-(-12)=21
9+12=21
21=21

.
.
Begin by removing the parentheses. Since the parentheses are preceded by a negative sign
if you remove them you change the signs of the terms inside. This leads you to getting:
.
.
On the left side combine the 9 and the + 2 to get 11 and this makes the equation:
.
.
Get rid of the +11 on the left side by subtracting 11 from both sides and you then have:
.
.
Solve for x by dividing both sides by -3 and the answer becomes:
.
