Answer 2

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf{-31}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to solve this, you must expand by a distributive property.

Distributive property:

A(B+C)=AB+AC

3(2x-7)-2(3x+5)

3(2x-7)

3*2=6

3*7=21

Rewrite the problem.

6x-21

6x-21-2(3x+5)

-2(3x+5)

-2*3=-6

-2*5=10

-6x-10

Rewrite the problem down.

6x-21-6x-10

Combine like terms.

6x-6x-21-10

Add similar into their elements.

6x-6x=0

-21-10

Solve.

Subtract the numbers from left to right.

-21-10=-31

-31

• Therefore, the correct answer is -31.
