Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
first, let's distribute.
3(x+1)-2=x+5
3x+3-2=x+5
then, let's combine like terms.
3x+1=x+5
now, we subtract x on both sides.
2x+1=5
subtract 1 on both sides.
2x=4
divide by 2 on both sides.
x=2

Answer:
y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
|10-5y|=20
Since the absolute value is isolated, we can then separate the equations
For absolute values, there is a positive and negative when we remove the absolute values.
10-5y = 20 10-5y= -20
Subtract 10 from each side
10-10-5y = 20-10 10-10-5y= -20-10
-5y = 10 -5y = -30
Divide by -5
-5y/-5 =10/-5 -5y = -30/-5
y =-2 y =6
