The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \(3(x+2) - 2(x-1) = 7\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Distribute the terms inside the brackets We start by distributing the \(3\) and \(-2\) across their respective brackets. \[ 3(x + 2) - 2(x - 1) = 3x + 6 - 2x + 2 \] ### Step 2: Combine like terms Now, we will combine the like terms on the left side of the equation. \[ 3x - 2x + 6 + 2 = 7 \] This simplifies to: \[ (3x - 2x) + (6 + 2) = 7 \] \[ x + 8 = 7 \] ### Step 3: Isolate the variable Next, we need to isolate \(x\) by subtracting \(8\) from both sides of the equation. \[ x + 8 - 8 = 7 - 8 \] \[ x = -1 \] ### Final Answer The solution to the equation \(3(x + 2) - 2(x - 1) = 7\) is: \[ \boxed{-1} \] ---
