Answer:

x = 0.75 and or x = -0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

If the minus sign after the x was on purpose or if you accidentally put the addition sign after the minus or the other way around basically I have no idea if the solution I provided is correct so here's the solution to both possible equations you might have meant to type instead (and if this was intentional then awesome):

1. 2x - 6x = -3 and 2. 2x + 6x = -3

Let's do 1. first!

[tex]2x-6x=-3[/tex]

Simplify 2x-6x to -4x

[tex]-4x=-3[/tex]

Divide each side by -4

[tex]x=\frac{-3}{-4}[/tex]

And as you know, two negatives equal/make a positive

[tex]x=\frac{3}{4}[/tex] or [tex]x=0.75[/tex]

Now! Let's solve for 2.

[tex]2x+6x=-3[/tex]

Simplify 2x+6x to 8x

[tex]8x=-3\\[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8

[tex]x=\frac{-3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x=-\frac{3}{8}[/tex] or [tex]x=-0.375[/tex]
