5+4x−2⋅3+2x⋅3=9
To solve this problem, we'll proceed with these steps:
- Simplify the equation by performing arithmetic operations.
- Combine like terms.
- Solve the resulting equation for the variable x.
Now, let's work through these steps:
Simplify the equation given by performing the multiplication and subtraction:
5+4x−2⋅3+2x⋅3=9
5+4x−6+6x=9
Combine like terms on the left side:
(5−6)+4x+6x=9
−1+10x=9
To isolate 10x, add 1 to both sides of the equation:
10x=9+1
10x=10
Divide both sides by 10 to solve for x:
x=1010
x=1
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x=1.
Comparing this with the provided answer choices, we see that the correct choice is:
x=1
