Question

2(1-x)=3(1+2x)+5how to solve this

Answer 1

Whew photo. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Start with the distributive property on both sides.

So It would become: 2-2x=3+6x+5

Add like terms: 2-2x=8+6x

Add two to both sides since its negative: 2=8+8x

Now subtract 8 from both sides: -6=8x

Now divide 8 on both sides: -6/8=8x/8

Since 8x/8 cancels out to 1x, it can be written as x

Simplify: -3/4
