3x + 7 = x - 15

First, make sure to subtract x from both sides.
3x + 7 - x = -15
Second, simplify 3x - x to get 2x, and then keep the 7.
2x + 7 = -15
Third, subtract 7 from both sides. 
2x = -15 - 7
Fourth, simplify -15 - 7 to get -22.
2x = -22
Fifth, take the 2 and divide both sides by it, keeping the x by itself.
x = - \frac{22}{2}
Sixth, since 11 goes into 2 to get 22, simplify the fraction to 11.
x = -11

Answer: x = -11

Because the <em>Wemmick that Jaggers knew is different from what Pip described him to be.</em> The Wemmick that Jaggers knew is different. The Wemmick that he knew can often be such a calculating individual in his business dealings. That is why Jaggers jokingly referred to him as the most cunning imposter in all of London.
