Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                     (-3*x+9)/3-(6)=0 

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

            -3x + 9
 Simplify   ———————
               3   

Step  2  :

Pulling out like terms :

 2.1     Pull out like factors :

   -3x + 9  =   -3 • (x - 3) 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  (3 - x) -  6  = 0 

Step  3  :

Step  4  :

Pulling out like terms :

 4.1     Pull out like factors :

   -x - 3  =   -1 • (x + 3) 

Equation at the end of step  4  :

  -x - 3  = 0 

Step  5  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 5.1      Solve  :    -x-3 = 0 

 Add  3  to both sides of the equation : 
                      -x = 3
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  x = -3
