Simplify the given equation. 5x+ 2(x-3) = -2(x - 1)
0 7 x-6=-2 X-2
0 7 x - 6 = -2 x + 2
0 7 X - 3 = -2 x-1

i’m sorry:/

7x - 6 = -2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi! First we are going to distribute our "2" and "-2" values to the values in parenthesis.

5x + 2x - 6 = -2x + 2

Now, we can combine our like terms, "5x" and "2x".

7x - 6 = -2x + 2

Since our problem's answers are left in this form, not completely combined our answer is 7x - 6 = -2x + 2.

Hope this Helps! :)

a=24; b=12

step-by-step explanation:

a/b=2: 1

a=2b

36/(1+2)=12

b=12

a=24
