-5x -4(x-6) = -3

distribute

-5x -4x+24 = -3

combine like terms

-9x +24 = -3

subtract 24 from each side

-9x = -27

divide by -9

x = 3

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

−5x−4(x−6)=−3


To solve for x:

for this we have to make the equation in such a way that the variable x lies on the left side and constant terms on the right side.

First distribute -4 over x and -6

We get -4x+24.

Substitute in the equation.

-5x-4x+24 =-3

Subtract 24 from both the sides

-5x-4x = -3-24

Or =9x = -27

Divide by -9

X = 3
