Solve: 2(4x-3) - 8 = 4 + 2x

• x = 5/3

• x = 3

• x = 1

• x = 2

Solve for x:

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

• x = 6

• x = -14

• x = 9

• x = 28

What is the first step to solve this equation? 2x + 3(5x - 7) = 47

• Add 7 to both sides

• Combine 2x and 5x

• Distribute the 3 to 5x and - 7

• Subtract 2x from 5x
