Verified answer

3(x − 1) − (x + 5) = 2

3x − 3 − x − 5 = 2

2x = 2 + 5 + 3

2x = 10

[ x = 5 ]

Hope this helps

Feel free 2 email me if u have any more questions !

3(x-1)-(x+5)=2

3x-3-x-5 =2

2x-8 =2

2x =10

x =10 / 2

x =5

3x-3-x-5=2

2x-8=2

2x=10

x=10/2

x=5

remedy: 5 - 2(x - a million) = 3x - 8 5(-2x + 2) = 3x - 8 5 - 2x + 2 = 3x -8 combine like words: 5 + 2 = 7 7 - 2x = 3x -8 upload -3x to the two component of the equation 7 - 2x - 3x = 3x - 8 - 3x 7 - 5x = -8 upload -7 to the two component of the equation 7 - 5x - 7 = -8 - 7 -5x = -15 Divide the two section with the help of -5 -5x/-5 = -15/-5 x = 3

3x-3-x-5=2

2x-8=2

2x=10

x=5

expand the brackets

3x-3-x-5=2

2x-8=2

2x=10

x=5

Solution and answer:

3x-1-x-5=2

2x=6

x=1/3 or .333

solution

3x-3-x-5=2

or 2x-8=2

or 2x=10

or x=10/2

therefore x=5

3(x - 1) - (x + 5) = 2

or, 3x - 3 - x - 5 = 2

or, 2x - 8 = 2

or, 2x = 10

or, x = 5

simple....
