3(2x + 9) = 4 + 3x - 1

6x + 27 = 3 + 3x

6x - 3x = 3 - 27

3x = -24

x = -8

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x+9) = 4+3x-1

Distribute

6x+27 = 4+3x-1

Combine like terms

6x+27 = 3+3x

Subtract 3x from each side

6x+27-3x = 3+3x-3x

3x+27 = 3

Subtract 27 from each side

3x+27-27 = 3-27

3x = -24

Divide by 3

3x/3 = -24/3

x = -8
