\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "1)
\n" ); document.write( "2(1-x)+3(x+4)=5(x+3)Complete multiplication using distributive property a(b + c) = ab + ac
\n" ); document.write( "2-2x+3x+12=5x+15 Group like terms on each side of the equal sign.
\n" ); document.write( "x+14=5x+15 Subtract x from both sides of the equation
\n" ); document.write( "x-x+14=5x-x+15
\n" ); document.write( "14=4x+15 Subtract 15 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "14-15=4x+15-15
\n" ); document.write( "-1=4x divide both sides by 4
\n" ); document.write( "-1/4=x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2)
\n" ); document.write( "x(2x+3)-4(x-1)=2x(x+1) Complete multiplication
\n" ); document.write( "2x^2+3x-4x+4=2x^2+2x Group like terms on each side
\n" ); document.write( "2x^2-x+4=2x^2+2x subtract 2x^2 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "2x^2-2x^2-x+4=2x^2-2x^2+2x
\n" ); document.write( "-x+4=2x add x to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "-x+x+4=2x+x
\n" ); document.write( "4=3x divide both sides by 3
\n" ); document.write( "x=4/3\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
