What is the value of x in the equation 10x + 2 = 5?

• 1/2

• 3/10

• 1/3

• 2/5

In the equation 2 * (3x - 2) = 5 * (2x + 1), what is the first step?

• Divide both sides by 2

• Add 2 to both sides

• Distribute on both sides

• Subtract 2 from both sides

What is the result of distributing 2 * (3x - 2)?

• 6x - 4

• 6x - 2

• 3x - 4

• 3x - 2

After distributing and simplifying, what is the next step in solving 6x - 4 = 10x + 5?

• Add 4 to both sides

• Subtract 4 from both sides

• Add 10x to both sides

• Subtract 10x from both sides
