SimplifyOkie dokie so first things first, you have to get rid of those parentheses! To do this you use the distributive property. -3(x+2) is the same thing as -3(x)+-3(2). that and you get -9=-3x-6. So you want to get x by itself to be able to find what x is, so you add 6 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the -6. So then you get -3=-3x. Then you must divide both sides by the coefficient of x, which would be -3. When you divide both sides by -3 you get -3/-3=x, which is the same thing as 1=x. Hope this helped!
Answer:
none of those are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
5 red
7 blue
8 white
5 red + 7 blue= 12
5 red + 7 blue + 8 white= 20
=12/20
=6/10
<h2><u><em>
=3/5</em></u></h2>
Add the prices together
Then divide by 3.
*6.25 + 3.25 = 9.50/3 = 2 of them pay 3.16 while the other pays 3.17.

The answer is:
x=-8
Because:
If you pick a number(-8) to fill in the equation written below
5x+20+5x=5x-20
After applying the -8 to x you get
-40+20-40=-40-20
When you simply the both sides you get
-60=-60
And that’s right -60 is equal to -60!
