Question

2+9x=3(4x+1)-1
Find each solution

Answer 1

x = 0

Explanation:

Given

2 + 9x = 3(4x + 1) - 1 ← distribute and simplify right side

2 + 9x = 12x + 3 - 1

2 + 9x = 12x + 2 ( subtract 9x from both sides )

2 = 3x + 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

0 = 3x ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 0
