  • 5x - 2 -3x(1+2) =2(2+3)

    5x - 2 -3x(3) = 2(5)

    5x - 2 -9x = 10

    -4x -2 = 10

    -4x = 12

    x = -3

  • 5x - 2 -3x(1+2) =2(2+3)

    5x - 2 -3x(3) = 2(5)

    5x - 2 -9x = 10

    -4x -2 = 10

    -4x = 12

    x = -3

    so one answer.: x= -3

  • 5x-2-3x(1+2)=2(2+3)

    5x-2-3x-6x=4+6

    2x-6x=10+2

    -4x=12

    x = -3

    answer : x = -3

  • One answer.

    Do the parentheses first:

    5x - 2 - 3x(3) = 2(5)

    Do the implied multiplications:

    5x - 2 - 9x = 10

    Combine like terms:

    -4x - 2 = 10

    Add 2 to both sides:

    -4x = 12

    Divide both sides by -4:

    x = -3

  • x = -3

    so,one answer.. just solve it..

    5x-2-3x-6x=4+6

    now do the math and you'll get the answer

  • 5x-2-3x-6x=4+6

    2x-6x=10+2

    -4x=12

    x=-3

  • a million. Distribute the three and the two: 2[(3x-15)+17]-[(10x-4)+5] 2. combine like words (upload -15 and 17 & upload -4 and 5): 2[3x+2]-[10x+a million] 3. The minus sign is comparable to having a -a million in front of the bracket, so: 2[3x+2]-a million[10x+a million] 3. Distribute lower back, this time with the two and the -a million: 6x+4-10x-a million 4. combine like words: -4x+5 complete! solid success!
