Question

Solve equation show all steps what 2x-3x+5=18

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \mathsf{ \purple{x = - 13}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\mathsf{2x - 3x + 5 = 18}$

Collect like terms

$\mathsf{ - x + 5 = 18}$

Move constant to R.H.S and change it's sign

$\mathsf{ - x = 18 - 5}$

Calculate the difference

$- x = 13$

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

$\mathsf{x = - 13}$

$\mathsf{LHS \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: RHS}$

$\mathsf{2x - 3x + 5 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 18}$

$\mathsf{ = 2 \times ( - 13) - 3 \times ( - 13) + 5}$

$\mathsf{ - 26 + 39 + 5}$

$\mathsf{ = 13 + 5}$

$= 18$

Thus, LHS = RHS

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

$2x-3x+5=18$

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

$2x-3x+5=18\\2x + -3x + 5 = 18$

$( 2x + -3x ) + ( 5) = 18$ (Combine Like Terms)

$-x + 5 = 18\\-x + 5 = 18$

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.

$-x + 5 - 5 = 18 - 5 \\-x = 13$

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

$\frac{-x}{-1} = \frac{13}{-1} \\x = -13$

Answer : $\boxed {x = -13}$
