will give brainliest to right awnser

212x−34(2x+5)=38

awnsers:
a: x=−458
b: x=−338
c: x=418
d: x=538

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 212x−34(2x+5)=38.

To find : Solve for x.

Solution : We have given

212x−34(2x+5)=38.

Remove parenthesis

212 x - 68 x - 170 = 38

Solve like terms

144x - 170 = 38.

On adding both sides by 170.

144 x = 38 + 170.

144 x = 208.

On dividing both sides by 144

x =

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

1st step: isolate x.

24 - 3x = -27

-24         -24

-3x   =   -51

2nd step: divide.

-3x     =   -51

  3             3

  x       =     17
