Question

3x – 2(2x – 5) = 2(x + 3) – 8

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x - 2(2x - 5) = 2(x + 3) - 8 \\ 3x - 4x + 20 = 2x + 6 - 8 \\ 20 - x = 2x - 2 \\ 20 + 2 = 2x + x \\ 22 = 3x \\ 3x = 22 \\ \\ x = \frac{22}{3} = 7 \frac{1}{3}$

Answer 2

Answer:x=8

Step-by-step explanation:3x–4x+10=2x+6-8

                                              -x+10=2x-2

                                               10-2=2x-x

                                               x=8
