Solve the following equation and then check your solution. Show all of your work. 24-3x=-27 what is x

x=17

Step-by-step explanation:

First, Isolate the variable x by transposing it.

24-3x=-27

-3x=-27-24

Add the equation.

-3x=-51

Simplify x by multiplying both sides by 1/-3.

-3x/-3= -51/3

x=17

X =17

Step-by-step explanation:

24-3x = -27

collect like terms

-3x = -27 -24( crossing the = sign turns 24 negative)

-3x = -51

divide both sides by the coefficient of x

-3x/-3 = -51/-3( negative signs cancels each other out)

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

we have

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

this is a quadratic equation (vertical parabola) open up

the vertex is a > vertex
