Since the 7 is in front of the parentheses you must multiply it by everything inside the parentheses. 7 times X is 7X and 7 times -2 is -14. Then you need to make the X be by itself on one side, to do that you have to add 14 to -14 to make it disappear, and also add 14 to the other side, to 28. Then you divide both sides by 7 to make X be by itself.
7(x-2)=28
7X-14=28
7x=42
X=6
In order to subtract fractions, you need the denominators (bottom number) to be the same.

Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
(8x-8)3/2=64
(24x-8)/2=64 -You are distributing the three
12x-4=64 -You divide the whole thing by two
12x=60 -You subtract the four from both sides
x=5 - You divided the twelve from both sides

Answer:
part 1= "72=(2w)+(w-15)"
part 2= "29"
I'm not sure if they want "w = abc"
I used that equation to solve part 2
