you can transform 4x + 12 = 9x - 3 again into a simpler form by subtracting 4x form both sides to get 12 = 5x - 3, if you subsitute 3 for x in 12 = 5x - 3, do you still get a true statement

Yes you will still get a true statement because 3 is the solution to the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well substitute 3 for x into the equation and solve for to see if they equal each other.

12 = 5(3) - 3    

12 = 15 - 3

12 = 12  

So if you substitute 3 you get the solution .

Now solve for x in the real equation to see if you get 3.

4x + 12 = 9x -3  

-4x           -4x

 12 = 5x -3  

+3           +3

15 = 5x  

x = 3
