Question

|2(x - 3) + 5| - 4 = 6x

Answer 1

I believe the answer is

x=
`(7)/(4)` or 1.75

Explanation:

l2(x+3)+5l-4=6x

add 4 to each side

l2(x+3)+5l=6x+4

distribute 2 into (x+3)

2x+6+5=6x+4

add same like terms

2x+11=6x+4

subtract 6x on each side

-4x+11=4

subtract 11 on each side

-4x=-7

then, divide -4 on both sides

x=
`(7)/(4)`
