Those are called binomials & you have to use the distributive property.
first: 3(x+1) distributed & simplified 3x+3 & 5(x-2) distributed & simplified is 5x-10, therefore 3(x+1) = 3x+3 & 5(x-2) = 5x-10. always simplify before solving any algebraic problem! 
second: so now we can say... 3x + 3 = 5x - 10 + 7 .
third: now we combine like terms by adding the -10 & 7 (on the right side) together to get -3.
fourth: now we have to isolate the variables by doing the opposite function on each side! it should look like this right now: 3x + 3 = 5x - 3 ... subtract the 3x, on both sides, from the 5x to get 2x. looks like this now: 3 = 2x - 3
now add the -3 (on the right) on the both sides
looks like this now: 6 = 2x
fifth: now divide to get 3.     X = 3 !!!!!

Solve: 3n - 6 = -8(6 +5n)<br> and explain how to solve it
hjlf

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First use distributive property: a(b + c) = a*b + a*c

3n - 6 = -8(6 + 5n)

3n - 6 = 6 * (-8) + 5n *(-8)

3n - 6 = -48 - 40n

Now add 40n to both sides

3n - 6 + 40n = -48 - 40n + 40n

43n - 6 = -48

Now add 6 to both sides

43n - 6 + 6 = -48 + 6

           43n = -42

               n = -42 /43
