Answer:

x=17/11

Step-by-step explanation:

7x-2(x+12)=-5-2(1-3x)

First, you want to get rid of the parenthies.

7x-2x-24=-5-2+6x

Now, you want to combine all of the common terms

5x-24=-7+6x

11x-24=-7

Next, you want to add 24 to each side.

11x-24=-7

   +24  +24

Now, you want to divide 11 from both sides.

11x=17

---   ---

11    11

x=17/11
