I'm lowkey bout to have a heart attack if I don't get a tutor :( 5(2x + 6) = −4(−5 − 2x) + 3x

5(2x + 6) = -4(-5 -2x) + 3x

10x + 30 = 20 + 8x + 3x

10x + 30 = 20 + 11x

Applying the additive inverse property, we get,

10x + 30 - 10x - 20 = 20 + 11x - 10x - 20

10 = x

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10

2

x=5
