Answer:
x = -3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
2(3 - x) -12 + 4x = -3x -9
Distribute
6 -2x -12 +4x = -3x -9
Combine like terms
2x -6 = -3x -9
Add 3x to each side
2x+3x -6 = -3x+3x -9
Add 6 to each side
5x -6+6 = -9+6
5x = -3
Divide each side by 5
5x/5 = -3/5
x=-3/5
[tex]2(3-x)-12+4x=-3x-9[/tex]
[tex]6-2x-12+4x=-3x-9[/tex]
[tex]-6+2x=-3x-9[/tex]
[tex]2x+3x=-9+6[/tex]
[tex]5x=-3[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{-3}{5}[/tex]
