Solve for x:

negative 3 over 2, multiplied by x minus 9 equals negative 27

-24

-12

11

12

-3x/2 - 9 = - 27

-3x/2 = - 27 + 9

-3x/2 = - 18

-3x = - 18 * 2

-3x = - 36

x = 36/3

x = 12

*negative thirty-six turned into negative thirty-six over three, but since both numbers were negative, we had to make it positive in order to simplify, so that's why the answer is twelve, and not negative twelve.
