Answer:
x = -11
Step-by-step explanation:
3(1 - 3x) = 2(-4x + 7)
Distribute the 3.
(3 - 9x) = 2(-4x + 7)
Distribute the 2.
3 - 9x = -8x + 14
Add 8x to both sides.
3 - x = 14
Subtract 3 from both sides.
-x = 11
Multiply by -1.
x = -11.
Proof:
3(1 - 3x) = 2(-4x + 7)
3(1 - 3(-11)) = 2(-4(-11) + 7)
3(1 + 33) = 2(44 + 7)
3(34) = 2(51)
102 = 102
