Question 650885
{{{9(x+3)=6(x-3)+2(x+15)}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{9x+27=6x-18+2x+30}}} Distribute.



{{{9x+27=8x+12}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{9x=8x+12-27}}} Subtract {{{27}}} from both sides.



{{{9x-8x=12-27}}} Subtract {{{8x}}} from both sides.



{{{x=12-27}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{x=-15}}} Combine like terms on the right side.
