First, distribute the -2 to the terms inside the parentheses:
-6x + 30 - 25 = 35
Combine like terms:
-6x + 5 = 35
Subtract 5 from both sides:
-6x = 30
Divide both sides by -6:
x = -5

x=
x=
First, subtract 10x from both sides:
12x + 5 - 10x = -11
Combine like terms:
2x + 5 = -11
Subtract 5 from both sides:
2x = -16
Divide both sides by 2:
x = -8
12x + 5 - 10x = -11
Combine like terms:
2x + 5 = -11
Subtract 5 from both sides:
2x = -16
Divide both sides by 2:
x = -8
