Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we just have to the multiplication and do the simplification (adding up the similar terms) afterwards:
3(x+1)=7(x-2)-3 becomes...
3x + 3 = 7x - 14 - 3
3x + 3 = 7x -17
Then we move all x's on one side and all plain numbers on the other side, we'll move the x's to the right since there's a bigger value there, and will move the plain numbers on the left side, by subtracting 3x and by adding 17 on both sides
3x + 3 - 3x + 17 = 7x -17 + 17 - 3x
20 = 4x
If we isolate x alone we have:
20/4 = x or x = 5
Simplifying
P + -21 + -21 = 34 + -21
-21 + -21 + P = 34 + -21
Combine like terms: -21 + -21 = -42
-42 + P = 34 + -21
Combine like terms: 34 + -21 = 13
-42 + P = 13
Solving
-42 + P = 13
Solving for variable 'P'.
Move all terms containing P to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '42' to each side of the equation.
-42 + 42 + P = 13 + 42
Combine like terms: -42 + 42 = 0
0 + P = 13 + 42
P = 13 + 42
Combine like terms: 13 + 42 = 55
P = 55
Simplifying
P = 55
