+2440 In this equation, our goal is to isolate the unknown, x. Let's see how we would go about doing that
| \(3(2-x)=5(2x-7)+2\) | This is the original equation. Distribute the 3 and the 5 into the given parentheses. |
| \(6-3x=10x-35+2\) | Combine -35+2. |
| \(6-3x=10x-33\) | Add 33 to both sides, |
| \(39-3x=10x\) | Add 3x to both sides. |
| \(39=13x\) | Divide by 13 to isolate x. |
| \(3=x\) | |
There ya go!
