Question

Solve the following equation 2x+15=3x-10

Answer 1

Answer:

Simplifying 2x + 15 = 3x + -10 Reorder the terms: 15 + 2x = 3x + -10 Reorder the terms: 15 + 2x = -10 + 3x Solving 15 + 2x = -10 + 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. 15 + 2x + -3x = -10 + 3x + -3x Combine like terms: 2x + -3x = -1x 15 + -1x = -10 + 3x + -3x Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0 15 + -1x = -10 + 0 15 + -1x = -10 Add '-15' to each side of the equation. 15 + -15 + -1x = -10 + -15 Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0 0 + -1x = -10 + -15 -1x = -10 + -15 Combine like terms: -10 + -15 = -25 -1x = -25 Divide each side by '-1'. x = 25 Simplifying x = 25
