Solve the equation 3(x+2)=5x-2


Sagot :

[tex]3(x+2)=5x-2\\ 3x+6=5x-2\\ 5x-3x=6+2\\ 2x=8\\ x=4[/tex]
      3(x + 2) = 5x - 2
  3(x) + 3(2) = 5x - 2
        3x + 6 = 5x - 2
     - 3x         - 3x     
                6 = 2x - 2
             + 2        + 2
                8 = 2x
                2     2
                4 = x
