4(5 + 2x) - 5 = 3(3x + 7) --- distribute through the parenthesis 20 + 8x - 5 = 9x + 21 15 + 8x = 9x + 21 --- subtract 9x from both sides 15 + 8x - 9x = 21 --- subtract 15 from both sides 8x - 9x = 21 - 15 -- combine like terms -x = 6 x = -6
you are good man
check... 4(5 + 2(-6) - 5 = 3(3(-6) + 7) 4(5 - 12) - 5 = 3(-18 + 7) 4(-7) - 5 = 3(-11) -28 - 5 = -33 -33 = -33 (correct) yep...answer is -6
yeah x=-6
