We know there is 57 members are in the math club and there is twice as many sixth grades than the seventh. To find out how many sixth graders are in the club, we do:
x = seventh graders
2x = sixth graders
2x + x = 3x
57=3x
57 ÷ 3 = 3x ÷3
19 = x
So there is 19 seventh graders and 19×2= 38 sixth graders
3x-5=-6x+13 : Given
3x=-6x+18 : Addition property of Equality
9x=18: Subtraction property of Equality
x=2: Division Property of Equality
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to give justification to each step
Step 1:
3x-5=-6x+13
This is the question given, which we need to solve and find value of x.
Justification: Given
Step 2:
Adding 5 on both sides of the equation using addition property of equality.
3x-5+5=-6x+13+5
Simplifying
3x=-6x+18
Justification: Addition property of Equality
Step 3:
Adding 6x on both sides of the equation
3x+6x=-6x+18+6x
9x=18
Justification: Subtraction property of Equality
Step 4:
Divide both sides of the equation by 9, to find the value of x using division property of equality
9x/9=18/9
x=2
Justification: Division Property of Equality

It is in simple form. There is absolutely nothing more that can be done, unless it is a joke. And math jokes are very hard to come by.
I don't think that y(y - 1)/(a + 2b) is any simpler.
Come to think of it, is that x^2 or y^2 on the top left.
I think my first answer is the best one. Nothing can be done.
