Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

We are given: 18x - 2(3x + 1) = 5x - 16

First, lets distribute the -2 to the 3x and 1.

18x - 6x - 2 = 5x - 16

Now, we combine like terms.

12x - 2 = 5x - 16

Next, we add 2 to each side.

12x = 5x -14

Now, we subtract 5x from both sides.

7x = -14

Finally, we divide by 7 on both sides.

x = -2

  Statements:                             Reasons:

  18x - 2(3x + 1) = 5x - 16            Given

  18x - 6x - 2 = 5x - 16                Distributive Property of Equality

  12x - 2 = 5x - 16                       Combine like terms

  12x = 5x -14                              Addition Property of Equality

  7x = -14                                     Subtraction Property of Equality

  x = -2                                        Division Property of Equality
