Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 3(-x + 6) = 42

use distributive property

7x + -3x + 18 = 42

positive + negative = negative

7x - 3x + 18 = 42

combine like terms

4x + 18 = 42

subtract 18 from both sides

4x + 18 - 18 = 42 - 18

18 is canceled out on the left side

4x + 0 = 24

4x = 24

divide both sides by 4

4x ÷ 4 = 24 ÷ 4

1x = 6

x = 6
