Anonymous answered Simplifying3(2x + -4) = 3x + -1(5 + -1x)Reorder the terms:3(-4 + 2x) = 3x + -1(5 + -1x)(-4 * 3 + 2x * 3) = 3x + -1(5 + -1x)(-12 + 6x) = 3x + -1(5 + -1x)-12 + 6x = 3x + (5 * -1 + -1x * -1)-12 + 6x = 3x + (-5 + 1x)Reorder the terms:-12 + 6x = -5 + 3x + 1xCombine like terms: 3x + 1x = 4x-12 + 6x = -5 + 4xSolving-12 + 6x = -5 + 4xSolving for variable 'x'.Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.Add '-4x' to each side of the equation.-12 + 6x + -4x = -5 + 4x + -4xCombine like terms: 6x + -4x = 2x-12 + 2x = -5 + 4x + -4xCombine like terms: 4x + -4x = 0-12 + 2x = -5 + 0-12 + 2x = -5Add '12' to each side of the equation.-12 + 12 + 2x = -5 + 12Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 00 + 2x = -5 + 122x = -5 + 12Combine like terms: -5 + 12 = 72x = 7Divide each side by '2'.X = 3.5Simplifyingx = 3.5
Suhail Ajmal answered The problem can be solved for the value of x as follows;3(2x-4)=3x-(5-x)6x-12=3x-5+x6x-12=4x-56x-4x=12-52x=7x=7/2x=3.5 is the answer.
Kavita Martin answered Problem solve Method3(2x-4)=3x-(5-x)6x-12=3x-5+x6x-12=4x-56x-4x=12-52x=7divide x= 7/2Ansx= 3.5
