Question

What is the solution to the following equation? 3(7x – 12) + 26 = 3x – 10

Answer 1

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

3(7x – 12) + 26 = 3x – 10

Distribute

21x -36 +26 = 3x-10

21x -10 = 3x-10

Add 10 on each side

21x-10+10 = 3x-10+10

21x = 3x

Subtract 3x from each side

21x-3x = 0

18x =0

x=0

Answer 2

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

3(7x – 12) + 26 = 3x – 10

21x-36+26-3x+10=0

18x-10+10=0

18x+0=0

18x=0

x=0

check : 3(7(0)-12)+26=3(0)-10

          : -36+26=-10

          -10=-10 it is correct
