Question

$$2(2x-3)-3(x+3)=0$$

Solve for x

$x=15$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply $2$ by $2x-3$.

$$4x-6-3\left(x+3\right)=0$$

Use the distributive property to multiply $-3$ by $x+3$.

$$4x-6-3x-9=0$$

Combine $4x$ and $-3x$ to get $x$.

$$x-6-9=0$$

Subtract $9$ from $-6$ to get $-15$.

$$x-15=0$$

Add $15$ to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.

$$x=15$$
