Question

I am doing algebra elementry work and need help 7x + 52=2x-13​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

7x + 52 = 2x + -13

Reorder the terms:

52 + 7x = 2x + -13

Reorder the terms:

52 + 7x = -13 + 2x

Solving

52 + 7x = -13 + 2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

52 + 7x + -2x = -13 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 7x + -2x = 5x

52 + 5x = -13 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

52 + 5x = -13 + 0

52 + 5x = -13

Add '-52' to each side of the equation.

52 + -52 + 5x = -13 + -52

Combine like terms: 52 + -52 = 0

0 + 5x = -13 + -52

5x = -13 + -52

Combine like terms: -13 + -52 = -65

5x = -65

Divide each side by '5'.

x = -13

Simplifying

x = -13

Answer 2

Answer:-13

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract you have to get the Xs together by subtracting

7x from 2x to get 5x

The do the same for 52 and 13

-52 from -13

13  carries the Minus with it.

then you will get -65 divide that by 5 and get -13
