Question

3x-5 (2×+7)=3(4x-1 ) +5/2

Answer 1

hey here is your answer

3x-10x+35=12x - 3 + $\frac{5}{2}$

-12x-10x+3x=-35-3$\frac{5}{2}$

-19x=-32$\frac{5}{2}$

-19x=-80

x=-80/-19

x=4.210

Answer 2

3x - 5 (2x + 7) = 3(4x -1 ) + 5/2

Distribute 5 and 3:

3x - 10x - 35 = 12x - 3 + 5/2

Combine like terms:

-7x - 35 = 12x - 1/2

Add 7x to both sides:

-35 = 19x - 1/2

Add 1/2 to both sides

-69/2 = 19x

Switch sides:

19x = - 69/2

Divide both sides by 19:

x = -69/38

Answer: x = -69/38
