Question

I NEED HELP PLEASE 13 - 3(x + 2)+ 5x = 29

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

13 − 3(x + 2) + 5x = 29

13 + (−3)(x) + (−3)(2) + 5x = 29 (Distribute)

13 − 3x − 6 + 5x = 29

(−3x + 5x) + (13 − 6) = 29 (Combine Like Terms)

2x + 7 = 29

2x + 7 − 7 = 29 − 7

2x = 22

2x/2 = 22/2

x = 11

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

13 - 3(x + 2) + 5x = 29

13 - 3x - 6 + 5x = 29

-3x + 5x + 13 - 6 = 29

2x + 7 = 29

     -7     -7

--------------------------------

2x = 22

/2     /2

x = 11
