Answer:
[tex] \huge{x = \frac{7}{2} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x - 9) + 3(x + 4) = 2(x - 6)
First expand the terms in the bracket
That's
5x - 45 + 3x + 12 = 2x - 12
Simplify
8x - 33 = 2x - 12
8x - 2x = 33 - 12
6x = 21
Divide both sides by 6
[tex] \frac{6x}{6} = \frac{21}{6} \\ x = \frac{21}{6} [/tex]
Simplify
We have the final answer as
[tex]x = \frac{7}{2} \\ [/tex]
Hope this helps you
