Question 1168472
.
<pre>

The condition of the problem is AMBIGOUS.


It can be read, translated and interpreted in two different ways.


One way is 

    3(x+2) - 4 = 2(x+2) + 15.


The other way is

    3(x+2) - 4 = 2*((x+2) + 15).


Different equations/translations/interpretations produce different answers.

Therefore, such long formulations in English practically make no sense, because they often are ambiguous.



Not only they are ambiguous --- they often are DANGEROUS.
