Answer 2

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

$\tt 6(3x+2)−5(6x−1)=3(x−8)−5(7x−6)+9x$

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

$\tt 6(3x+2)−5(6x−1)=3(x−8)−5(7x−6)+9x$

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

(Distribute)

$\tt 18x+12+−30x+5=3x+−24+−35x+30+9x$

$\tt (18x+−30x)+(12+5)=(3x+−35x+9x)+(−24+30)$

(Combine Like Terms)

$\tt −12x+17=−23x+6$

$\tt −12x+17=−23x+6$

Step 2: Add 23x to both sides.

$\tt −12x+17+23x=−23x+6+23x$

$\tt 11x+17=6$

Step 3: Subtract 17 from both sides.

$\tt 11x+17−17=6−17$

Answer:

$\tt x=−1$
