Question

solve: 2x-31=3 (x+2)

37
-37
5
37/5

Answer 1

To solve the equation 2x-31=3(x+2), we will first distribute the 3 on the right side:

2x-31=3x+6

Now, we can rearrange the equation by subtracting 2x from both sides:

-31=x+6

Next, we can subtract 6 from both sides:

-37=x

So, the solution to the equation is x=-37.
