Question

Solve 2 - (3x - 12) = 41

Answer 1

Answer:

2 −1(3−12)=41

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

2−1(3−12)=41292786-1(3x-12)=412−1(3x−12)=412−3+12=41

Add the numbers:

2−3+12=41 92786{2}-3x 92786{12}=412−3x+12=4114−3=41

Rearange terms:

1=4−3=41 92786 {14-3x}=4114−3x=41−3+14=41

Subtract 14 from both sides of the equation:

−3+=14=41-3x+14=41−3x+14=41−3+14−14=41−14

Simplify:

Subtract the numers, then subtract again and get

−3=27

Your solution:

=−9
