12-4(x-3)=39+9x equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
12-4*(x-3) = 39+9*x
Expand brackets in the left part
12-4*x+4*3 = 39+9*x
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
24 - 4*x = 39+9*x
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
−4x=9x+15Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
(−13)x=15Divide both parts of the equation by -13
x = 15 / (-13)
We get the answer: x = -15/13
