37= -3 + 5 (x+6) solve for x

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Pull out like factors: 24+4x=4•(x + 6)

2. Solve: 4=0 (This equation has no solution. A a non-zero constant never equals zero.)

3. Solve: x+6=0 (Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.)

That's how you will get x = -6

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

37= -3 + 5 (x+6)

Distribute 5(x+6)

37= -3 + 5x + 30

Combine like terms (30-3)

37= 5x + 27

Subtract 27 to both sides (37-27)

10 = 5x

Divide 5 to both sides (10/5)

x = 2

the first option is the answer.
