Misha solves the equation 3x-2(x+3)=4(x-2)-7by applying the distributive property to each side of the equation. The result is 3x-2x-6=4x-8-7. Misha then wants to combine like terms. Which are the terms Misha should combine?

A. 3x – 2x and –8 – 7
B. 3x – 2x and 8 – 7
C. 3x – 2x + 4x and –6 – 8 – 7
D. 3x – 2x – 6 and 4x – 8 – 7

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]3x-2(x+3)=4(x-2)-7[/tex]

Applying the distributive property to each side of the equation

[tex]3x-2x-6=4x-8-7[/tex]

Combine like terms

[tex](3x-2x)-6=4x+(-8-7)[/tex]

[tex]x-6=4x-15[/tex]

therefore

The terms that Misha should combine are 3x – 2x and –8 – 7
