Answer:

2x - 30

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to subtract 3x + 18 from 5x - 12:

=> 5x - 12 - ( 3x + 18) = 5x - 12 - 3x - 18 = 5x - 3x - 12 - 18 = 2x - 30

The first step was to apply distributive properties to get rid of the parenthesis, after that the terms were arranged and the like terms combined

Answer = 2x - 30

Which of the following is the solution set of the given equation? 14 + 8m = 14 - 3m - 5m ∅ {0} {all reals}
Yanka [14]

Answer:

{0}

Step-by-step explanation:

14 + 8m = 14 - 3m - 5m

Combine like terms

14 + 8m = 14 - 8m

Add 8m to each side

14 +8m +8m = 14 -8m +8m

14 +16m = 14

Subtract 14 from each side

14-14 +16m = 14-14

16m = 0

Divide by 16

16m/16 = 0/16

m = 0
