Question

4-2(x+7) = 3(x+5)
4-2x-14 = 3x+15
-10-2x = 3x+15

Answer 1

x = -5

Explanation:

Given that:

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

Now by simplifying we get:

4-2x-14 = 3x+15

-10-2x = 3x+15

Taking terms with x on left side and constants on right side

signs of transferred terms are changed

-3x - 2x = 15 + 10

- 5x = 25

Dividing both sides by -5

x = 25/-5

x = -5
