Example

3(r+2s)=2t-4
a⋅(b-2)=3b
3(r+2s)=2t-4
a⋅(b-2)=3b

Question

$$4(x-3)-(x-5)=0$$

Answer

x=7/3

Solution


Remove parentheses.
\[4(x-3)-x+5=0\]
Expand.
\[4x-12-x+5=0\]
Simplify  \(4x-12-x+5\)  to  \(3x-7\).
\[3x-7=0\]
Add \(7\) to both sides.
\[3x=7\]
Divide both sides by \(3\).
\[x=\frac{7}{3}\]
