Answer:
first method
subtract 5 from both side
2x + 5 -5 = 12 - 5
:. 2x = 7
:. X= 2
7
divide 2 from both side
X= 2x 7
2 2
:. X= 3.5
second method
2x = 12 - 5
2x = 7
X= 2 ÷ 7
:. X= 3.5
(5x³ + 4x²) - (6x² - 2x - 9)
-1(6x²) -1(-2x) -1(-9) = -6x² + 2x + 9
5x³ + 4x² - 6x² + 2x + 9
5x³ - 2x² + 2x + 9 Choice D.
