Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
9(3−2x)=2(10−8x)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
9(3−2x)=2(10−8x)
(9)(3)+(9)(−2x)=(2)(10)+(2)(−8x)(Distribute)
27+−18x=20+−16x
−18x+27=−16x+20
Step 2: Add 16x to both sides.
−18x+27+16x=−16x+20+16x
−2x+27=20
Step 3: Subtract 27 from both sides.
−2x+27−27=20−27
−2x=−7
Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.
−2x
