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

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

open the brackets

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

5-15x-6 = 28-12x+1

-15x+12x = 29+1

3x = 30

x= -10

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Distribute 3 in Left hand side and 4 in right hand side.

5 - 15x - 6 = 28 - 12 x + 1

Calculate the like terms.

5 - 6 - 15 x = 28 + 1 - 12 x

-1 - 15 x = 29 - 12 x

Move variables in the opposite side and change their sign.

- 15x + 12x = 29 + 1

- 3 x = 30

Divide both side of equation by -3.

-3x / -3 = 30 / - 3

x = - 10

y = - 6

step-by-step explanation:

given the point (- 2, y) lies on the graph then it is a solution of it's equation.

substitute x = - 2 into the equation for value of y

y = 3(- 2) = 3 × - 2 = - 6

the point on the graph is (- 2, 6)
