the answer is -7

I took the test I hope you pass just like I did have a nice day.

Answer 2

x = -7

Explanation:

-6x + 3 = 45

First, we need to get rid of the 3 by subtracting it by 3. We need to do the same to the number on the other side.

-6x + 3 = 45

-3 - 3

-6x = 42

Then, to iolate the x, we need to divide -6 by itself to cancel the number out and get x alone. We also need to divide 42 by -6 as well.

`(-6x)/(-6) = (42)/(-6)`

42 divided by -6 is -7.

`x=-7`

I hope this helps!
