Question
100%
I got the right answer in this problem (-5) by following the table on my first picture. Though I have a few questions on the steps I have taken. 1. Do we follow PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction) in solving for x? Because aside from solving those in parenthesis first, it’s not followed at all in this problem. 2. So when do we use PEMDAS then? Thank you.

SOLYE FOR X
21. D: 3(x – 1) = 2(3x – 9)
3x-3 = 6x - 18
-3 = 3x- 18
Distribute
Subtract 3x from both sides
Add 18 to both sides
Divide both sides by 3
15 = 3x
5 = x
