9-x-3-7\left(x+2\right)=0
To find the opposite of x+3, find the opposite of each term.
6-x-7\left(x+2\right)=0
Subtract 3 from 9 to get 6.
6-x-7x-14=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -7 by x+2.
6-8x-14=0
Combine -x and -7x to get -8x.
-8-8x=0
Subtract 14 from 6 to get -8.
-8x=8
Add 8 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\frac{8}{-8}
Divide both sides by -8.
x=-1
Divide 8 by -8 to get -1.
