2(3x - 7) + 18 = 10
Subtract 18 from both sides.
2(3x - 7) = -8
Distribute the side with parenthesis.
2(3x) + 2(-7) = -8
6x -14 = -8
Add 14 to both sides.
6x = 6
Divide both sides by 6.
x = 1

I hope this helps!

2(3x - 7) + 18 = 10

Subtract 18 from both sides:

2(3x - 7) = -8

divide both sides by 2

3x - 7 = -4

add 7 to both sides


3x = 3


divide both sides by 3:


x = 1


So your answer is A) 1
