Solve 3(3x-9) 2 -22=5

Evaluate

3 (3 x - 9) \times 2 - 22 = 5

Multiply the terms

6 (3 x - 9) - 22 = 5

Move the expression to the left side

6 (3 x - 9) - 22 - 5 = 0

Subtract the numbers

6 (3 x - 9) - 27 = 0

Calculate

More Steps

18 x - 81 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

18 x = 0 + 81

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

18 x = 81

Divide both sides

\frac{18 x}{18} = \frac{81}{18}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{81}{18}

Solution

x = \frac{9}{2}

Alternative Form

x = 4.5
