Answer:

[tex]x=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

[tex]-3(-3x-1)+2x+2=27[/tex]

First, distribute the -3:

[tex]9x+3+2x+2=27[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]11x+5=27[/tex]

Subtract 5 from both sides:

[tex]11x=22[/tex]

Divide both sides by 11:

[tex]x=2[/tex]

So, the value of x is 2.

And we're done!
