Question

$2x + 15 = 3x - 20$

​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 15 = 3x - 20

2x - 3x = -20 -15

-x = -35

x = -(-35)

x = 35

Answer 2

Answer:

35

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a linear equation in one variable and we have to find out the value of the variable i.e. $x$ such that if we will put value of  $x$ then it satisfies the equation.

⇒ $2x + 15 = 3x - 20$

⇒ $2x - 3x = -20 - 15$

⇒$-x = -35$

⇒ $x = -1(-35)$

⇒ $x = 35$

Checking

Let us put the value of  $x$ accordingly;

⇒$2(35) + 15 = 3(35) - 20$

⇒$70 + 15 = 105 - 20$

⇒$85 = 85$

Therefore, the value of x is 35.
