1 solution
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficients of x are different on each side of the equal sign, so this equation has one solution.
_____
Additional comment
If the x-coefficients are the same on each side of the equal sign, then you need to look at the constants. If they are the same, there are an infinite number of solutions; if they are different, no solutions.
This equation simplifies to ...
3x -3 = 2x +9
x = 12 . . . . . . . . add 3-2x to both sides
