Answer:

X=1

Explanation:

For step one you have to Distribute

2x-1(4x+3)=-7x+2 --> 2x-4x-3=-7x+2

For step two you have to Combine Like Terms

2x-4x-3=-7x+2 --> -2x-3=-7x+2

For step three you have to Add Three To Both Sides

-2x-3=-7x+2 --> -2x=-7x+5

For step four you have to Add 7x To Both Sides

-2x=-7x+5 --> 5x=5

For step 5 you have to Divide Both Sides By The Same Factor (5)

5x=5 --> x=1

Hope This Helps!
