Hello there!

2(x - 3) = 2x + 5

Let's start by using the distributive property for the left side.

(2)(x) + (2)(-3) = 2x + 5

2x - 6 = 2x + 5

Then we need to add 6 to both sides

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

2x = 2x + 11

We need to transfer 2x on the left side, we gonna do that by subtracting 2x from both sides

2x - 2x = 2x + 11 - 2x

0 = 11

Thus,

There are no solutions.

I hope this helps!

Good luck with your career!

1. Expand

2x - 6 = 2x + 5

2. Cancel 2x on both sides

-6 = 5

3. Simplify

-6 + 5 = -1

Final Answer:

-1

B. 1 = 12

i + (-3) is really just i - 3
i - 3 = 9
add 3 to both sides since the opposite of -3 is +3
you’re left with i = 12
