Answer:

The answer is x = -13 .

Explanation:

Solve the equation:

3(x -2) = 5(x + 4)

Use <u>Distributive Property</u>:

3(x -2) = 5(x + 4)

3x - 6 = 5x + 20

-Subtract 5x from 3x :

3x - 6 -5x = 5x -5x + 20

-2x - 6 = 20

-Add both sides by 6 :

-2x - 6 + 6 = 20+6

-2x = 26

-Divide both sides by 2 :

\frac{-2x}{-2} = \frac{26}{-2}

x = -13

So, now you have found the answer.
