Question

solve the equation :
3 (X+2)-5 = 2x-7​

Answer 1

Answer:

3(x+2)-5=2×-7

3x+6-5= -14

3x+1 =-14

3x= -14 -1

3x = -15

x = -15/3

x =-5

Answer 2

Solution:

$\sf{3(x+2)−5 = 2x−7}$

$\implies\sf{3x+6−5 =2x−7}$

$\implies\sf{3x+1 = 2x−7}$

$\implies\sf{3x+1−1 =2x−7−1}$

$\implies\sf{3x =2x−8}$

$\implies\sf{3x−2x=2x−8−2x}$

$\implies\sf{x= -8}$
