Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

13x = 3(x - 20)              {Use distributive method:a(b+c)=(a*b) + (a*c)

13x = 3*x - 3*20

13x = 3x - 60            {Subtract '3x' from both sides}

13x -3x = -60      

    10x = -60      {Divide both sides by 10}

        x= -60/10

       x = -6

Using the order of operations, what would be the first step:<br><br> 4−8÷1−3[3+(7−5)2]
jeka94

Answer:

(7-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to PEMDAS, parenthesis go first. But there are two sets of parenthesis so the one inside the other goes first.

Next would be [3+(2*2)]

Then, [3+4]

Then, -8/1

Then, -3(7)

So the question would be 4-8-21

Which gives you -25 as an answer.

I realize that you weren't asking for the whole thing but maybe there are follow up questions.
