Question

2+d=2-3(d-5)-2 Pls show work

Answer 1

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

First, cancel 2 on both sides. / Your problem should look like: $d = -3(d - 5) - 2$
Second, expand. / Your problem should look like: $d = -3d + 15 - 2$
Third, simplify -3d + 15 - 2 to get -3d + 13. / Your problem should look like: $d = -3d + 13$
Fourth, add 3d to both sides. / Your problem should look like: $d + 3d = 13$
Fifth, add d + 3d to get 4d. / Your problem should look like: $4d = 13$
Sixth, divide both sides by 4. / Your problem should look like: $d = \frac{13}{4}$

Answer as fraction: $d = \frac{13}{4}$
Answer as decimal: $d = 3.25$

Answer 2

2+d=2−3(d−5)−2

2+d=2+(−3)(d)+(−3)(−5)+−2(Distribute)

2+d=2+−3d+15+−2

d+2=(−3d)+(2+15+−2)(Combine Like Terms)

d+2=−3d+15

Add 3d to both sides.

d+2+3d=−3d+15+3d

4d+2=15

 Subtract 2 from both sides.

4d+2−2=15−2

4d=13

Divide both sides by 4.

4d/4=13/4

d=13/4
