Answer:

x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(3x−9)=5x+2

(2)(3x)+(2)(−9)=5x+2(Distribute)

6x+−18=5x+2

6x−18=5x+2

Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.

6x−18−5x=5x+2−5x

x−18=2

Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

x−18+18=2+18

x=20

You distribute the two in the parenthesis and add both the x and then the 18 and 2 which gives you 20 ;X=20

The sum of two numbers is 56. The smaller number is 12 less than the larger number. What are the numbers?

Serga [27]

56/2 = 28 + 28

28 + 6 = 34
28 - 6 = 22

34 + 22 = 56

34 - 22 = 12

Your numbers are 34 and 22

Is there any other answers? To me, none of those look correct. If you had -3 and substituted it into the equation you would get -1(-3)+3, which would turn into 3+3 which equals 6.
