Solve the equation. –6 + 3x = –9

A. –1

B. –6

C. –5

D. –3

i got c. -5

How did you get that answer ??

-6 + 3x = -9
3x = -9 + 6
3x = -3
x = -1

I see what i did ..

instead of switching the numbers i tried solving it just like it was

To solve the equation -6 + 3x = -9, we need to isolate the variable x.

First, let's manipulate the equation to get rid of the -6 on the left side. To do that, we can add 6 to both sides of the equation:
-6 + 6 + 3x = -9 + 6

Simplifying:
3x = -3

Now, to isolate x, we can divide both sides of the equation by 3:
(3x) / 3 = (-3) / 3

Simplifying further:
x = -1

Therefore, the correct solution to the equation is x = -1. So, the option A, -1, is the correct answer.
