I need to find the solution for x the question is -3 (x-8) =39

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

original equation: -3(x - 8) = 39

1.) distribute -3 to (x - 8).

start by distributing -3 to x. you will get -3x.

then distribute -3 to -8. (since all that is left in the parentheses is the minus sign and 8, the 8 becomes negative) you will get 24.

2.) now your equation is -3x + 24 = 39. subtract 24 from both sides of the equation. it will cancel itself out on the left side, and after being subtracted from 39 on the right side, your equation becomes -3x = 15.

3.) divide both sides of the equation by -3x. 15/3 = 5, therefore x = 5.

i hope this helps! i tried to do it as quickly as possible while still explaining it somewhat thoroughly. i'm still new to answering stuff on lol :/ have a great rest of your day! <3
