Question

how do i solve 2x+2 =x+ 7​

Answer 1

Heya mate!!! here is your explanation...

first form the equation:

2x + 2 = x + 7

then start solving it as i show you below

2x + 2 = x + 7

2x - x = 7 - 2 ( x will be brought to LHS and will become negative, sameway 2 will be brought to RHS and will be negative)

1x = 5

x = 5 ( we have got the answer, it's five!!!)

hope it helped you...

have a great day ahead friend...

Answer 2

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x2=x+7

• multiple the numbers

4=x+7

4=x+7

• move the variable to the left hand side and change its sign

4-x=7

4=x+7

• move the constant to the right hand side and change its sign

-x=7-4

-x=7-8

• subtract the numbers

-x=3

-x=3

• change the signs on the both sides of the equation

x= -3

And that's it
