Solve.
(2x - 3) / 4  = 9

• x = 24
• x = 12
• x = 17.5
• x = 19.5

3x + 2(4x - 4) = 3

• 4
• 3
• 2
• 1

6x + 5x = -11

• -2
• -1
• 1
• 2

What is the first step to solve this equation:
11 - 3x = 44

• Add 3 to both sides
• Subtract 11 from both sides
• Add 11 to both sides
• Divide 3 on both sides.
