Question

solve my 5 x - 3 - 3 x + 7

Answer 1

Simplifying 5x + -3 = 3x + 7 Reorder the terms: -3 + 5x = 3x + 7 Reorder the terms: -3 + 5x = 7 + 3x Solving -3 + 5x = 7 + 3x Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-3x' to each side of the equation. -3 + 5x + -3x = 7 + 3x + -3x Combine like terms: 5x + -3x = 2x -3 + 2x = 7 + 3x + -3x Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0 -3 + 2x = 7 + 0 -3 + 2x = 7 Add '3' to each side of the equation. -3 + 3 + 2x = 7 + 3 Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0 0 + 2x = 7 + 3 2x = 7 + 3 Combine like terms: 7 + 3 = 10 2x = 10 Divide each side by '2'. x = 5 Simplifying x = 5

Answer 2

5 x -3 = 3 x + 7
5 x -3 x =7+3
2 x = 10
x = 10/2
therefore, x = 5 ans
