Hi there! :)
<u>Answer:</u>
The good answer is the top left one, which is:
2x -1(5 - 3x) = 4x +2
2x - 5 + 3x = 4x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x <u>- 1</u>(5 - 3x) = 4x + 2
The correct first step is to distribute the "-1" to the entire parentheses:
-1 × 5 = <u>-5</u>
-1 × -3x = <u>3x</u>
Once this first step is done, you are left with an equation looking like this:
2x - 5 + 3x = 4x + 2
Which is the top left answer for you!
There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
Im pretty sure the value of x in this equation is -3 because -3 plus 5 would equal 2.
