Question 161695: 2(3+7x) - (1+15x)=2
2(4+3r) = 3(r +1) + 11
1/4x - 4 = 3/2x+3/4x
3/4(a-2)-1/3(5-2a)=-2

I'll do the first one to get you started




2%283%2B7x%29-%281%2B15x%29=2 Start with the given equation.


6%2B14x-1-15x=2 Distribute.


-x%2B5=2 Combine like terms on the left side.


-x=2-5 Subtract 5 from both sides.


-x=-3 Combine like terms on the right side.


x=%28-3%29%2F%28-1%29 Divide both sides by -1 to isolate x.


x=3 Reduce.

Answer:

So the answer is x=3
