-3(x+2)=7
Use distributive propert first to get:
-3x - 6 = 7 Add 6 to both sides
-3x = 13 divide both sides by -3
x = - 13/3 = - 4 1/3
Can you go into detail on how you got the 6 from (x+2)
-3 (x+2) = -3(x) -3(2) = -3x -6 distributive property of multiplcation
OHHHHHHHHHHH
Wow, I forgot you can combin like terms and distrubutive prop.
