Question

Distributive Property (show work)
1) 3(x + 2) = -9 -2x
2) 3(x + 2) = 9 +2 (x + 4)
3) 5(c + 4) = 4(2c - 3) -7

Answer 1

3x + 6 = -9 - 2x
3x + 2x = -9-6
5x = -15
x = -3

Answer 2

3x + 6 = 9 + 2x + 8
3x - 2x = 17-6
x = 11 (if i didn't make any dumb mistakes)

Answer 3

no i didn't

Answer 4

3) 5c + 20 = 8c - 12 - 7
5c - 8c = -20 - 19
-3c = -39
c = 13
