What equation is equivalent to 6x + 13 - (3x - 7)

6x + 12 - (3x - 7)

6x + 12 - 3x + 7

3x + 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

6x + 13 + -3x + -7 = 0

Reorder the terms:

13 + -7 + 6x + -3x = 0

Combine like terms: 13 + -7 = 6

6 + 6x + -3x = 0

Combine like terms: 6x + -3x = 3x

6 + 3x = 0

Solving

6 + 3x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.

6 + -6 + 3x = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0

0 + 3x = 0 + -6

3x = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6

3x = -6

Divide each side by '3'.

x = -2

Simplifying

x = -2

the answer is n
