What's the equation for - 2 (3x-4) + 9=2x+3

-6+8+9=2x+3

11=2x+3

8=2x

x=4

x=2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

• Distributive Property

-6x+8+9=2x+3

• Add like terms

-6x+17=2x+3

• Move like variables over equal sign

17=2x+3

+6x (the sign flips once across equal sign)

• Same thing with the whole #s

17=8x

+3

• Get "x" by itself by dividing the 8 on both sides

(:8) 20=8x (:8)

• Equals

x=2.5
