Solve the following: -3(x - 8) + 7x = 12

explain!

 -3

Step-by-step explanation:

First... Distribute the -3 into x and -8. You'll have -3x + 24 + 7x = 12

Next... Subtract 24 on both sides (-3x + 24 - 24 + 7x = 12 - 24)

                                 -3x + 7x = -12

Add like terms to get 4x = -12

Finally.. you divide 4 on both and you have...

x = -3

step-by-step explanation: examine the two-step equation.

which property of operations allows you to add the same constant term to both sides?

multiplication property of equality

division property of equality

addition property of equality

subtraction property of equality

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

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−51

x=17

answer:

x=17
