    x=-3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3 (2+x) = - 3

    Divide each side by 3

    3/3 (2+x) = - 3/3

    2+x = - 1

    Subtract 2 from each side

    2+x-2 = - 1-2

    x = - 3

    x = - 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Distribute

    3 (2 + x) = - 3

    (3 * 2) + (3 * x) = - 3

    (6) + (3x) = - 3

    Step 2: Subtract 6 from both sides

    6 + 3x - 6 = - 3 - 6

    3x = - 9

    Step 3: Divide both sides by 3

    3x / 3 = - 9 / 3

    x = - 3

    Answer: x = - 3
