Simplify both sides of the equation

2-(3x-4)=2x-9

2+-1(3x-4)=2x-9

Distribute the negative sign

2+-1(3x)+(-1)(-4)=2x-9

2+-3x+4=2x-9

2+-3x+4=2x+-9

Combine like terms

(-3x)+(2+4)=2x-9

-3x+6=2x-9

Subtract 2x from both sides

-3x+6-2x=2x-9-2x

-5x+6=-9

Subtract 6 from both sides

-5x+6-6=-9-6

-5x=-15

Divide both sides by -5

-5x/5=-15/-5

x=3


I hope that's help !

First put the -1 into the 3x and -4, so it looks like 2-3x+4=2x-9, then combine 2 and 4, (-3x+6=2x-9), then subtract 2x from both sides (-5x+6=-9) then subtract 6 to both sides so -5x=-15, then divide by 5 so x=3 hope this helps!! sorry i messed up the first time

How do I write this expression:The quantity seven plus Z, squared
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

  (7+Z)²

Step-by-step explanation:

A less ambiguous way to describe the quantity might be "the square of the quantity seven plus Z".

As it is, we rely on the presence of the comma to tell us that the quantity to be squared is (7+Z). If the comma were not present, we would assume you want to add 7 to the square of Z: 7+Z².

  the quantity 7 plus Z: (7+Z)

  that quantity squared: (7+Z)²
