X=17/2
Decimal form : x=8.5
Answer: 17/2 or 8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 34x + 95 = 3(14x+9)
2. 34x + 95 = 42x + 27 (Distribute)
3. 34x – 42x + 95 = 27 (Subtract 42x from both sides)
4. 34x – 42x = 27 – 95 (Subtract 95 from both sides)
5. -8x = 27 – 95 (Combine like terms)
6. -8x = -68 (combine like terms)
7. x = 17/2 (divide both sides by -8)
