Answer:

23x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

use distribution to find the answer

1.) move the like term to one side (combine like terms)

(14x+ 9x) + (-3 + 5)

2.) simplify

(14x+9x) + (5-3)

3.) solve each equation inside the parenthesis

14x+ 9x= 23x

5- 3 = 2

4.) now turn the answers into an equation since they are not like terms

23x+ 2

And done! Hope this helps :)

Solve for a. 7a - 2b = 5a + b a = 2b a = 3b a = b a = b

$\\
\text{Consider the equation}\\
\\
7a-2b=5a+b\\
\\
\text{to solve for a, we will first add 2b both sides. so we get}\\
\\
7a-2b+2b=5a+b+2b\\
\\
\Rightarrow 7a=5a+3b\\
\\
\text{now subtract 5a both sides. so we have}\\
\\
7a-5a=3b\\
\\
\Rightarrow 2a=3b\\
\\
\text{divide 2 both sides to get}\\
\\
\Rightarrow a=\frac{3b}{2}$
