How do you solve 2x plus 3 plus 4x equals -9?

Answer 1

First combine like(same) terms. X in this case

4x and 2x = 6x

You'll end up with 6x+3 = -9

Then subtract 3 from both sides

You'll get 6x = -12

Then Divide by 6

6x/6 = -12/6

The 6x gets cancelled by the /6 so you just get X and -12/6 is just math

So...

X = -2
