An equation is shown below: 9(3x – 16) + 15 = 6x – 24 part a: write the steps you will use to solve the equation, and explain each step. (6 points) part b: what value of x makes the equation true? (4 points)

Part A: You first multiply 9 to 3x and minus 16. Then add 15 to -144. After that add 129 to both sides and subtract 6x from both sides. Divide both sides by 21 to get x my itself. You get x=5.

9(3x-16)+15=6x-24

27x-144+15 = 6x-24

27x-129 = 6x-24

27x -129+129 = 6x -24 +129

27x = 6x +105

27x - 6x =6x-6x 105

21x = 105

21x/21 = 105/21

x = 5

Part b: the value of x is 5
