Multistep Equations with Combining and Distributing

What is the first step to solve this equation:

2(5x + 3) - 9 = 18

• Subtract 2 from both sides

• Multiply 2 to 5x and 3.

• Subtract 3 from both sides

• Add 2 to both sides

Distribute, combine like term and Solve.

2(3b + 1) + 2b = -22

• b=-2.75

• b=-7/8

• b=3

• b=-3

Combine like term and Solve.

3x + 4x - 7 = 21

• x=28

• x=-28

• x=-4

• x=4

Distribute, combine like term and Solve.

12+ 4(2x - 7) = 48

• x=-8

• x=8

• x=64

• x=-64

Distribute and Solve

2(2y + 4) = 32

• y=4

• y=6

• y=-10

• y=10

Combine like term and Solve.

2x - 3 + 4x = 27

• x=12

• x=4

• x=5

• x=15

Which one is the next step to solve the equation after distributing 5 to 1 and 4h?

• Combine 5, 20h, and 2h to get 27h

• Combine 20h and 2h to get 22h

• Combine 5, 20, 2, and 27 to get 54h

• Combine 5 and 27 to get 32

Distribute, combine like term and Solve.

3(x - 5) - x = 1

• x=4

• x=3

• x=8

• x=2

Combine like term and Solve.

5x - 2 + 3x = 30

• x=4

• x=5

• x=6

• x=7

Distribute and Solve

3(2y - 5) = 21

• y=6

• y=7

• y=8

• y=9
