x = 0
Step by step explanation:
STEP 1:
Expand:
[tex] \frac{1}{3} (9x + 3) = 3x + 1[/tex]
Now, this gets us..
[tex]3x + 1 = 2x + 1[/tex]
STEP 2:
Subtract 1 from both sides:
[tex]3x + 1 - 1 = 2x + 1 - 1[/tex]
STEP 3:
Simplify:
[tex]3x[/tex]
AND,
[tex]2x[/tex]
STEP 4:
Subtract 2x from both sides:
[tex]3x - 2x = 2x - 2x[/tex]
Once you do that.. Simplify it and you will get:
[tex]x = 0[/tex]
So, therefore..
Your answer is: (x = 0)
