Transform the equation if necessary, and then solve to find the value of x that makes the equation true. X

1. 5x – (x + 3) = }(9x + 18) – 5
CH

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify = 1 /3

 (4x - 3) -  ((1/3 • (9x - 18)) -  5)  = 0

3.1     Pull out like factors :

  9x - 18  =   9 • (x - 2)  

 (4x - 3) -  (3 • (x - 2) -  5)  = 0  

 x + 8  = 0  

5.1      Solve  :    x+8 = 0  

Subtract  8  from both sides of the equation :  

                     x = -8 Ans

d. 8

step-by-step explanation:

the given radical expression is:

we can rewrite this as:

we express as square numbers to get;

the exponents will now cancel out to give.

the correct answer is d
