Answer:

Distribute 2 to (x + 6) and 3 to (x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x + 6) = 3(x - 4) + 5

The first step is to distribute on both sides

2x+12 = 3x-4 +5

We have to distribute to all terms inside the parentheses

Normal form [see attachment]

musickatia [10]

I just did one of these. I guessed that normal form is

$x \cos \phi + y \sin \phi - p = 0$

Here' that's

$x (\sqrt{3}/2) + y (1/2) - 10 = 0$

$\sqrt{3} x + y - 20 = 0$

Choice b
