Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

3x + 9 + 2x = x - 2x - 3              

Solution

Combine all the like terms.

3x+2x+9 =  x - 2x - 3

5x + 9 = -x - 3                            Add x to both sides of the equation

5x+x +9 = -x+x -3                      Combine

6x + 9 = - 3                                Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation

6x+9-9 = - 3-9                           Combine

6x = -12                                      Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = -12/6

x = - 2

Answer x = - 2
