Question 967432
I am trying to solve this equation:

3(4x+5)-2(x-7)=9

I came up with an answer: x=5/7
Is this the right answer? If not can you help me find the right answer?
<pre>No, it's not!
The correct answer is: {{{highlight_green(x = - 2)}}}.
You just need to do a check to determine if your answer is correct.
I think you need to rework the problem to try to arrive at the correct answer. It'd help a great deal if you'd reveal
how you're doing the problem, so someone can tell you where you're going wrong. I don't believe there is any better
way to learn.
