Question 70136This question is from textbook Intermediate Algebra
: Could you please help me solve the following problem and please show me the steps on how to solve it? Thank you so much - I greatly appreciate the help that you provide!
The problem is:
-[3x-(2x + 5)] = -4-[3(2x-4)-3x] This question is from textbook Intermediate Algebra
You can put this solution on YOUR website! -[3x-(2x + 5)] = -4-[3(2x-4)-3x]
Work from the inside out:
-[3x-2x-5] = -4-[6x-12-3x]
-[x-5] = -4 -[3x-12]
-x+5 = -4-3x+12
-x+5 = -3x+8
2x=3
x=3/2
