Simplify the given equation.

5x + 2(x - 3) = -2(x - 1)

a. 7x - 3 = -2x - 1

b. 7x - 6 = -2x + 2

c. 7x - 6 = -2x - 2

Respuesta :

Solve

5x + 2x -6 = -2(x - 1)

7x - 6 = -2(x-1)

Distribute

7x - 6 = -2(x - 1)

7x - 6 = -2x + 2

Add 6 to each side

7x - 6 + 6 = -2x + 2 + 6

Simplify

7x = -2x + 8

x = 8/9

So your answer is B. I believe
