Steps Problem Solution

1

Simplify the equation

\$ -3(x+a)=-9 \$

2

Given equation

\$ -3(x+a)=-9 \$

3

Dividing on both sides of the equation by "-3" we get

\$ (-3(x+a))/-3=(-9)/-3 \$

4

After cancellation we get

\$ x+a=3 \$

5

Adding "-a" on both sides of the equation

\$ x+a-a=3-a \$

6

After cancellation we get

\$ x=3-a \$

7

Hence the solution of the given equation is

\$ x=3-a \$
