Question

3-2(x + 1)=2x-7 SOLVE AND HOW MANY SOLUTIONS ?

Answer 1

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

3−2(x+1)=2x−7

3+(−2)(x)+(−2)(1)=2x+−7(Distribute)

3+−2x+−2=2x+−7

(−2x)+(3+−2)=2x−7(Combine Like Terms)

−2x+1=2x−7

−2x+1=2x−7

Step 2: Subtract 2x from both sides.

−2x+1−2x=2x−7−2x

−4x+1=−7

Step 3: Subtract 1 from both sides.

−4x+1−1=−7−1

−4x=−8

Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x−4=−8−4

x=2
