x/2 - 3= -15. what's "x"?

-24

good luck

-24
the person who said 36 forgot the - sign...

x/2 - 3 = -15
x - 6 = 30 [multiply all terms by '2' to get 'x']
x =36

x / 2 = - 12

x = - 24

-24

x/2 - 3 = -15
x/2 = 3 - 15
x = 2(-12)
x = -24

x= -24

x/2 - 3 = -15

x/2 = -15 + 3

x/2 = -12

x = -12(2)

x = -24

(x / 2) - 3 = -15
x / 2 = -12 (add three to both sides)
x = -24 (multiply both sides by two to get x)

x/2 - 3 = - 15
x/2 = 3 - 15
x/2 = - 12
x = 2(- 12)
x = - 24
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Check:

- 24/2 - 3 = - 15
- 12 - 3 = - 15
- 15 = - 15

Uh huh
