To solve, we must get x by itself. the first step we must take is to remove all of the parentheses. To do this, we must use distribution to multiply 5 by x - 6.
5(x - 6) = 3x - 18 + 2x
5x - 30 = 3x - 18 + 2x
Next, we must add like terms.
5x - 30 = 5x - 18
Finally, we must get x by itself. to do this, we must subtract 5x from both sides.
5x - 30 - 5x = 5x - 18 - 5x
Then, we add like terms again.
-30 = -18
Because this is a false statement, the equation is a contradiction.
The answer is C.
Tim reads 2 more times than Kelly(2x) and then you add 5 because Jim reads 5 more hours than Tim.
I think it is d-b=c-a, I'm not really sure

Step-by-step explanation:
Aiden's target weight is represented by zero mark on the number line.
Yesterday, Aiden's weight was 0.25 below the target weight that is represented by -0.25 mark.
Today, Aiden's weight was changed by 1.5 from yesterday
change = 1.5 - 0.25 = 1.25
Aiden's weight today is represented by 1.25 mark on the number line.
