Simplify the equation.
First, distribute the 2 in the left side of the equation.
Resulting in: 2x-6 = (x-1) + 7
Second, remove the parentheses form the right side of the equation (there is nothing to distribute there).
Resulting in: x - 1 + 7
Now simplify the right side of the equation by subtracting the 1 from the 7.
Resulting in: x + 6
Our goal is to isolate the x to the left side, and the numerals to the right side.
With that in mind, add the 6 (from the right side) to both sides. This cancels out the 6 on the right side.
Resulting in: 2x = 12
Lastly, in order to fully isolate the variable (x), we divide both sides by 2.
Resulting in: x = 6
Hope this helps.
Step-by-step explanation: The easiest way to do this and the way I commonly use is to subtract 17 from 89then make it negative as you are making the negative number smaller by adding a smaller number therefore your answer is -72
Answer: infinite solutions
Step-by-step explanation: any value of d makes the equation true. By simplifying the right side, we get -d + 4, which is the same as 4 - d, so we essentially get 4 - d = 4 - d.
