Question

Which equation shows the variable terms isolated on one side and the constant terms isolated on the other side for the equation 3X -5 equals negative 2X +10

Answer 1

Answer:

$5x= 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$3x - 5 = -2x +10$

Required

Write the variables and constants on different sides

$3x - 5 = -2x +10$

Add 2x to both sides

$2x + 3x - 5 =2x -2x +10$

$5x - 5 =10$

Add 5 to both sides

$5x - 5 + 5 = 10 + 5$

$5x= 10 + 5$

$5x= 15$

Hence, the equation is

$5x= 15$

Solving further [divide both sides by 5]

$x = 3$
