Answer 1

Do you have any ideas of what it might be or some we can eliminate?

Answer 4

first we simply each term

Answer 5

We're going to start by distributing 2 over x - 3.

Answer 6

You have to start doing distributing

Answer 7

After we distribute properly we will just add the numbers together, add like terms
- 7 and - 6 which would be -13

So I would think the best choice would be 2x - 13
