Solve for x. 3(2x+2)+x+5= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

First, distribute the 3:

Combine like terms:

Subtract 11 from both sides:

Divide both sides by 7:

And we're done!

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x+2)+x+5= -10

Subtract 5 from each side

3(2x+2)+x+5-5= -10-5

3(2x+2)+x= -15

Distribute

6x +6 +x = -15

Combine like terms

7x+6 = -15

Subtract 6 from each side

7x+6-6 = -15-6

7x  = -21

Divide by 7

7x/7 = -21/7

x = -3

step-by-step explanation:

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
