Question

solve the equation 2(x-3)+5=x-4​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-6+5=x-4

2x-x-1+4=0

x+3=0

x=-3

Answer 2

Answer:

=−3

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute

2(−3)+5=−4

{\color{#c92786}{2(x-3)}}+5=x-42(x−3)+5=x−4

2−6+5=−4

Add the numbers

2−6+5=−4

2x{\color{#c92786}{-6}}+{\color{#c92786}{5}}=x-42x−6+5=x−4

2−1=−4

Add 

1

11

 to both sides of the equation

2−1=−4

2x-1=x-42x−1=x−4

2−1+1=−4+1

Simplify
