Answer:
1.831
OI JOSUKE
Step-by-step explanation:
The LCM is 24.
1/12=2/24
5/8=15/24
4(x-3)-(2x+5)=-3x-27
4*x - 4*3 - 2x - 5 = -3x - 27
4x - 12 - 2x - 5 = -3x - 27
2x - 17 = -3x - 27
2x + 3x = -27 + 17
5x = -10 / : 5
x = -2
On the bottom left, the answer is subtraction property of equality because you need to subtract 4x to the 7x to simplify the equation.
