Can I please have math help????

Question

-4(2-3(2x-1))+5 = -3(-7 - 2x)-4x

Please help. =]

Answer 1

-4(2 - 3(2x - 1)) + 5 = -3(-7 - 2x) - 4x

-4(2 - 6x - 3) + 5 = 21 + 6x - 4x

-8 + 24x + 12 + 5 = 21 + 2x

24x + 12 + 5 - 8 = 21 + 2x

24x + 9 = 21 + 2x

24x - 2x = 21 - 9

22x = 12

x = 12/ 2

x = 6/11

Answer 2

-4(2-3(2x-1))+5 = -3(-7 - 2x)-4x

-4(2-6x+3)+5=-3(-(7+2x))-4x

-4(5-6x)+5=3(7+2x)-4x

-20+24x+5=21+6x-4x

24x-15=21+2x

22x=36

x=(36/22)

Answer 3

Seriously man; help them like the first person to answer the question, but don't do their homework for them.  They'll never learn anything that way.

Answer 4

PEMDAS. That should help. P(Parentheses)E(exponants)M(Mulitplicati... What this is is order of operations. So if you have (4+3)2(7-3)=______ You would do Paretheses first so 4+5 =9 7-3= 4. So now its 9x2x4=72. Use that to figure out your problem.
