-2(3x - 15) - 25 = 35
Distribute the -2 on the left side:
-6x + 30 - 25 = 35
Combine like terms:
-6x + 5 = 35
Subtract 5 from both sides:
-6x = 30
Divide by -6 on both sides:
x = -5
Solve for x : −2 (3x −15) − 25 = 35 .(1 point)

Solve for x : 12x + 5 = 10x −11 .(1 point)
12x + 5 = 10x - 11
Subtract 10x from both sides:
2x + 5 = -11
Subtract 5 from both sides:
2x = -16
Divide by 2 on both sides:
x = -8
Subtract 10x from both sides:
2x + 5 = -11
Subtract 5 from both sides:
2x = -16
Divide by 2 on both sides:
x = -8
