What is 3 (4x + 3) - 4 (6x + 1) = 41

x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3 (4x + 3) - 4 (6x + 1) = 41 (expand the parentheses by distribution)

3 (4x) + 3 (3) - 4 (6x) + 1 (-4) = 41

12x + 9 - 24x - 4 = 41

-12x + 5 = 41 (subtract 5 from both sides)

-12x = 41 - 5

-12x = 36 (divide both sides by - 12)

x = 36 / - 12 = - 3

Answer:-3
