Answer:
−2(4x+3)=5+3x
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−2(4x+3)=5+3x
(−2)(4x)+(−2)(3)=5+3x(Distribute)
−8x+−6=5+3x
−8x−6=3x+5
Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.
−8x−6−3x=3x+5−3x
−11x−6=5
Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.
−11x−6+6=5+6
−11x=11
Step 4: Divide both sides by -11.
−11x
−11
=
11
−11
x=−1
Answer:
A. x= -1
