Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x=−10
Step-by-step explanation:
x−3−2(x+6)=−5
x+−3+(−2)(x)+(−2)(6)=−5(Distribute)
x+−3+−2x+−12=−5
(x+−2x)+(−3+−12)=−5(Combine Like Terms)
−x+−15=−5
−x−15=−5
−x−15+15=−5+15
−x=10

<h3>1.) Combine like terms:</h3>
<em> - We do this because we need 1 Number/Variable left over. </em>
<u>Equation at the end of Step 1:</u>
- <u />
<u />
<em />
<h3>2.) Add −17 and 31:</h3>
<em> - We do this because we can only have 1 number on each side of the equals. (This doesn't count towards the number connected to the variable.)</em>
<u>Equation at the end of Step 2:</u>
- <u />
<u />
<h3>3.) Subtract 14 from both sides:</h3>
Cancels Out
<em> - We do this because now we just need the 1 variable and the 1 number on opposite sides of the equal.</em>
<u>Equation at the end of Step 3:</u>
- <u />
<u />
<h3>4.) Multiply both sides by 2:</h3>
- <em />
<em> </em>×

- <em />
<em> </em>× 
<em> - We multiply by 2 since we have a fraction. In this case the reciprocal is 2 meaning we multiply by 2. </em>
