2(3x-6)-2x+1=25 solve for x

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(3x−6)−2x+1=25

(2)(3x)+(2)(−6)+−2x+1=25(Distribute)

6x+−12+−2x+1=25

(6x+−2x)+(−12+1)=25(Combine Like Terms)

4x+−11=25

4x−11=25

Step 2: Add 11 to both sides.

4x−11+11=25+11

4x=36

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

4x

x=9

X = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to simplify and also remember the use of PEMDAS.

6x-12-2x+1=25

4x-11=25

Addition property of equality

4x=26

Division property of equality

x=6.5

step-by-step explanation:

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11 -1> 1 -1+ a

-12 > a
