2. 2y+18=12-6(y+7)
First distribute
2y+18=12-6y-42 <--- simplify the right side
2y+18=-6y-30 <-- add 6y to both sides
2y+18+6y=-6y-30+6y
8y+18-18=-30-18 <---subtract 18 from both sides
8y+18-18=-30-18
8y=-48 <---- divide both sides by 8
8 y 8 = 48 8 y = 6
So the answer is y = -6

3. -x-(13+14x)=-3(5-9x)+2
First distribute:
-x-13-14x=-15+27x+2 <---- simplify
-15x-13=-13+27x <------ add 15x to both sides
-15x+15x-13=-13+27x+15x
-13=-13+42x <------add 13 to both sides
-13+13=-13+42x+13
0=42x <----divide both sides by 42
0 42 = 42 x 42 0 = x
So the answer is x = 0
