Solve for x: 2(2a+3)-6=5a+2

a=-2

We move all terms to the left:

2(2a+3)-6-(5a+2)=0

We multiply parentheses

4a-(5a+2)+6-6=0

We get rid of parentheses

4a-5a-2+6-6=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1a-2=0

We move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right

-a=2

a=2/-1

a=-2

a = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2a+3)-6=5a+2

distrubute the 2

4a + 6 - 6 = 5a + 2

   combine like terms

    4a = 5a + 2

    -5a     -5a

        -a = 2

         a = -2
