Answer

4(x+1) + 3x + 2 = 7x + 6
4x + 4 + 3x + 2 = 7x + 6
7x + 6 = 7x + 6
-7x -7x
______________
6 = 6, always true,so, all numbers are solutions

what is the answer for 2(x+3)=5(x-1)-7(x-3)

2(x + 3) = 5(x - 1) - 7(x - 3)

2x + 6 = 5x - 5 - 7x + 21

2x + 6 = - 2x + 16

2x + 2x = 16 - 6

4x = 10

x = , or

You should be able to do the check to determine if the value of x = 2.5 makes the initial equation true.
