Hello!

Let's say we have the equation below.

2x-1=10x+15

We want to move all of the variables onto one side, and move the constants to the other. Let's first subtract 10x from both sides.

-8x-1=15

We add 1 to both sides.

-8x=16

We divide both sides by -8

x= -2

I hope this helps!

n200080 [17]

Answer:

part A: expression 1: 6(8m+2)

expression 2: 6m+12+42m

Part B: 6(m+2+7m)= 6(8m+2)

combine like terms is 6(m+2+7m), so it is 6(2+8m) or 6(8m+2)

6(8m+2)= 6(8m+2)

Part C: 6m+12+42m=6(m+2+7m)

m=0

6(0+2+7(0))=6(0)+12+42(0)

6(2)= 12

12=12
