Question

6(3x+2) - 5(6x-1) = 3(x-8) - 5(7x-6) + 9x

Answer 1

6(3x+2) - 5(6x-1) = 3(x-8) - 5(7x-6) + 9x
18x + 12 - 30x + 5 = 3x - 24 - 35x + 30 + 9x
-12x + 17 = 6 - 23x 
11x = -11
x = -1

Answer 2

= 18x + 12 - 30x + 5 = 3x - 24 - 35x + 30+ 9x.
= 18x - 30x - 3x + 35x - 9x = -24 + 30 +12 + 5 
= 20x             = 23.
= x = 23/20
x = 1.15.
