Answer:

x = -11

Explanation:

3 (1 - 3x) = 2 (-4x + 7)

×3 ×3 Distribute the 3 on the far left side with 1 and 3x

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

×2 ×2 Distribute the 2 with -4x and 7

3 - 9x = -8x + 14

+8x +8x Combine like terms / Add -8x to itself and 9x

3 - x = 14

-3 -3 Subtract 3 from both sides

-x = 11

×-1 ×-1 Multiply by -1 on both sides

x = -11
