-3(x - 1) + 8 (32 = 3) = x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

First distribute the -3 and the 8

Combine like terms

Move the -3x to the other side by adding 3x to each side

Now move the 7 to the other side by subtracting 7 from each side

Finally, divide both sides by 4 to get x

-3(x-1) + 8(32-3) = x + 7

-3x +3 + 256 - 24 = x + 7

-3x +235 = x + 7

235 = 4x + 7

228 = 4x

57 = x

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

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

4x - 6 + 6 = 4x - 6 + 6

4x = 4x

x = x
