Answer :

Question:

Solution:

Consider the following equation:

[tex]3x\text{ +2(x-1) = 9x+4}[/tex]

applying the distributive property, we get:

[tex]3x\text{ +2x-2 = 9x+4}[/tex]

now, putting the like terms together, we obtain:

[tex]3x\text{ +2x -9x = 4 +2}[/tex]

this is equivalent to:

[tex]-4x\text{ = 6}[/tex]

solving for x, we get:

[tex]x\text{ =- }\frac{6}{4}\text{ = -}\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

we can conclude that the correct answer is:

[tex]x\text{ =-}\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
