Answer:
x = -2[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to distinguish the numbers with x from the "normal" numbers.
2x and 6x are numbers with x.
3 and 0 are "normal" numbers.
Now we have to seperate them on different sides of the equal sign.
To do this, we can subtract 3 from the left side and then add it to 0 on the left side.
Therefore, the equation will now be 2x + 6x = -3.
Now we can add 2x and 6x together, making it 8x.
The equation will now be 8x = -3.
To find the product of x, we need to divide both sides together.
So 8 divided by -3 will make -2[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].
Therefore, x is -2[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].
Hope my explination makes sense :)
