♥ To solve this you are going to find x. ♥

♥ X in this case is representing a unknown variable, meaning we are not sure of the number x, and to finish the solution to your problem we have to find x.

♥ So to find x the first step is to simplify both sides of the equation. 

♥ Starting with distribution:

[tex]6=(-3)(x)+(-3)(2) \\ 6=-3x+-6 \\ 6=-3x-6[/tex]

♥ Now we want to flip the equation. 

[tex]-3x-6=6[/tex]

♥ Our next and almost final step, is to add the number -3 to both sides of our problem. This is going to help us tremendously. 

[tex]-3x-6+6=6+6 \\ -3x=12[/tex]

♥ Now our last step before we get our answer is to divide both sides of the problem. In this case we are going to do this:

[tex] \frac{-3x}{-3} = \frac{12}{-3} [/tex]

♥ And then because of that we get our final answer of: -4.


♥ x=-4
