solve for x.
-3(-4x - 3)= -27
a x= 2
b x= 3
c x= -3
d x= -2
To solve for x, we can start by distributing the -3 to the terms inside the parentheses:
-3(-4x - 3) = -27
12x + 9 = -27
Next, we can isolate the x term by subtracting 9 from both sides:
12x = -36
Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides by 12:
x = -36/12
x = -3
Therefore, the solution is c) x = -3.
