Answer:

[tex] \huge{x = \frac{7}{2} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x - 9) + 3(x + 4) = 2(x - 6)

First expand the terms in the bracket

That's

5x - 45 + 3x + 12 = 2x - 12

Simplify

8x - 33 = 2x - 12

8x - 2x = 33 - 12

6x = 21

Divide both sides by 6

[tex] \frac{6x}{6} = \frac{21}{6} \\ x = \frac{21}{6} [/tex]

Simplify

We have the final answer as

[tex]x = \frac{7}{2} \\ [/tex]

Hope this helps you

Answer:

x=3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x-9)+3(x+4)=2(x-6)

5x-45+3x+12=2x-12

8x-33=2x-12

8x-2x=-12+33

6x=21

x=21÷6

=3.5

Hope it helps!!!
