What does x equal in -3(9+x)=33

x = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(9+x)=33

1. Divide both sides by -3.

-3(9+x)/-3 = 33/-3

2. Simplify.

9 + x = -11

3. Subtract 9 from both sides.

9 + x - 9 = -11 - 9

4. Simplify.

x = -20

since proposition states that a number is greater than 25, if is true then the number must actually be greater than 25.

this implies that all possible options, except 24, can be accepted
