| Question 15490:  3+[2x-9]-20

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Should this read 3+[2x-9]-20=0 ?? If so you are looking for value of x.First add up terms to give:
 2x-26=0 Add 26 to both sides which gives:
 2x=26   Now divide both sides by 2 to give:
 x=13
 If you just have to simplify 3+[2x-9]-20 add terms to gve:
 2x-26 or take out factor 2 which would be:
 2(x-13).
 Hope this helps
