Bot GPT 3.5 To solve the equation 9x + 3(3x) + 2 = 0, we need to simplify the left side and solve for x.
First, distribute the 3 to the terms inside the parentheses:
9x + 3 * 3x + 2 = 0
9x + 9x + 2 = 0
18x + 2 = 0
Next, isolate the x term by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:
18x + 2 - 2 = 0 - 2
18x = -2
Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 18 to solve for x:
(18x)/18 = (-2)/18
x = -2/18
Simplify the fraction if possible:
x = -1/9
So, the solution to the equation is x = -1/9.
