2x+4(2)=10-x+7

2 x + 4 (2) = 10 - x + 7

x = 3

Solution steps

2 x + 4 (2) = 10 - x + 7

Remove parentheses:

(a) = a

2 x + 4 \cdot 2 = 10 - x + 7

Multiply the numbers:

4 \cdot 2 = 8

2 x + 8 = 10 - x + 7

Group like terms

2 x + 8 = - x + 10 + 7

Add the numbers:

10 + 7 = 17

2 x + 8 = - x + 17

Move

8

to the right side

2 x = - x + 9

Move

x

to the left side

3 x = 9

Divide both sides by

3

x = 3

2 x - (3 x - 2) = 2

\frac{s}{- 8} = - 1

5 (4) - 2 y + 5 = 12 - 3 (4) + 15

- 4 = s + 1

- 4 = c - 4
