Question
Solve the equation
x=311
Alternative Form
x=3.6˙
Evaluate
4(3x−9)×2−9=7
Multiply the terms
8(3x−9)−9=7
Move the expression to the left side
8(3x−9)−9−7=0
Subtract the numbers
8(3x−9)−16=0
Calculate
More Steps

Evaluate
8(3x−9)−16
Expand the expression
More Steps

Calculate
8(3x−9)
Apply the distributive property
8×3x−8×9
Multiply the numbers
24x−8×9
Multiply the numbers
24x−72
24x−72−16
Subtract the numbers
24x−88
24x−88=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
24x=0+88
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
24x=88
Divide both sides
2424x=2488
Divide the numbers
x=2488
Solution
x=311
Alternative Form
x=3.6˙
