Solution - Linear equations with one unknown

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

 1.1     Pull out like factors :

   -2x - 3  =   -1 • (2x + 3) 

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

 2.1      Solve  :    -2x-3 = 0 

 Add  3  to both sides of the equation : 
                      -2x = 3
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) :  2x = -3


Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
                     x = -3/2 = -1.500
