Question

Solve such of the following

-2(x+2)=3x-9

-2(3x-4)=4(2x+5

Answer 1

-2(X+2)=3X-9

-2X-4 =3X-9

-2X-3X = -9+4

-5X = -5

X =-5/-5

X=1

-2(3X-4)= 4(2X+5)

-6X+8 =8X+20

-6X-8X=20-8

-14X = 12

X= 12/-14

X =6/-7

Answer 2

Answer:

$1. \: 2(x + 2) = 3x - 9 \\ 4x + 4 = 3x - 9 \\ \\ 4x - 3x = - 9 - 4 \\ x = - 13 \\ \\ 2.$

$2(3x - 4) = 4(2x + 5) \\ 6x - 8 = 8x + 20 \\ 8x - 6x = - 8 - 20 \\ 2x = - 28 \\ x = \frac{ - 28}{2} \\ x = - 14$
