Answer 2

Answer:

=> x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$2x - 18 = 3-5x$

To find:- The value of the expression,

We must use the transposition method to calculate the value of x:

As we have,

=> $2x - 18 = 3-5x$

First of all, rearrange the terms:

=> $2x - 18 = -5x+3$

Add $18$ on both sides we get,

=> $2x - 18 +18= -5x+3+18$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $2x = -5x +3+18$

Add the numbers,

=> $2x = -5x +21$

Now, add $5x$ on both sides:

=> $2x +5x= -5x +21+5x$

=> $7x = 21$

Divide both sides by $7$, we get

=> $x = 3$

Hence, the required solution is 3.
