Solve the equation:

2(d - 6) = 3d + 5

Asked by justinjames23m

Answer (3)

2 ( d − 6 ) = 3 d + 5 2 d − 12 = 3 d + 5 2 d − 3 d = 5 + 12 − d = 17 / ⋅ ( − 1 ) d = − 17

Hey Justinjames23m,
This is how you do it, step by step:
2(d - 6) = 3d + 5 2d - 12 = 3d + 5 2d = 3d + 17
**d = -17
**Hope this helps!

To solve the equation 2 ( d − 6 ) = 3 d + 5 , we distribute, simplify, and isolate d to find d = − 17 . All steps involve moving terms to one side and simplifying appropriately. This leads us to the final answer of d = − 17 .
