I am new to this site and asking help for algebra homework.

Evaluate the parentheses:
6(x-2) = 6x - 12
3(x +5) = 3x + 15
2(5x-2) = 10x - 4
Therefore:
6x - 12 - 3x - 15 = 10x - 4
Group up the x's onto one side, and numbers on the other:
6x - 3x - 10x = -4 +15 + 12
-7x = 23
x=-3.285714 or -(3 + 2/7)
6(x-2) = 6x - 12
3(x +5) = 3x + 15
2(5x-2) = 10x - 4
Therefore:
6x - 12 - 3x - 15 = 10x - 4
Group up the x's onto one side, and numbers on the other:
6x - 3x - 10x = -4 +15 + 12
-7x = 23
x=-3.285714 or -(3 + 2/7)

been a while but this is what i get...
6(x-2)– 3(x +5)=2(5x-2)
(6x-12)-(3x+15)=10x-4
6x-12-3x-15=10x-4
6x-3x-10x=12+15-4
-7x=23
x=23/-7
x=-3.286
6(x-2)– 3(x +5)=2(5x-2)
(6x-12)-(3x+15)=10x-4
6x-12-3x-15=10x-4
6x-3x-10x=12+15-4
-7x=23
x=23/-7
x=-3.286

Well it's really easy all you have to do is that multiply the numbers outside the bracket with the numbers inside the bracket and bring all the numbers at one side of the equation.

Kahfi - why don't you show/demonstrate to maridee the solving process here? Perhaps she is just learning algebra?
6(x-2)-3(x+5)=2(5x-2)
(6x-12)-(3x-15)=10x-4
6x-3x-10x-12-15+4=0
-7x-23=0
-7x=23
x=23/-7
You just divide it!!!!!!
(6x-12)-(3x-15)=10x-4
6x-3x-10x-12-15+4=0
-7x-23=0
-7x=23
x=23/-7
You just divide it!!!!!!

You simply do -
6 * x = 6x
6 * -2 = -12
-3 * x = -3x
-3 * 5 = -15
2 *5x = 10x
2 * -2= -4
and now put the answers together -
6x - 12 - 3x - 15 = 10x - 4
6 * x = 6x
6 * -2 = -12
-3 * x = -3x
-3 * 5 = -15
2 *5x = 10x
2 * -2= -4
and now put the answers together -
6x - 12 - 3x - 15 = 10x - 4
