Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5x + 7 = 3x + -5

Reorder the terms:

7 + 5x = 3x + -5

Reorder the terms:

7 + 5x = -5 + 3x

Solving

7 + 5x = -5 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

7 + 5x + -3x = -5 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 5x + -3x = 2x

7 + 2x = -5 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

7 + 2x = -5 + 0

7 + 2x = -5

Add '-7' to each side of the equation.

7 + -7 + 2x = -5 + -7

Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0

0 + 2x = -5 + -7

2x = -5 + -7

Combine like terms: -5 + -7 = -12

2x = -12

Divide each side by '2'.

x = -6

Simplifying

x = -6

What is x²+x-30 as a binomial?
Zolol [24]
X^2+x-30 -- find two numbers that add to one and multiply to -30, which would be 6 and -5. so now you have x^2+6x-5x-30. factor out x and 5 to get x(x+6)-5(x+6). so you get (x+6)*(x-5)

3x+3=192 is the equation
To solve the equation, you would subtract 3 from both sides, 3-3 cancels out, so 192-3= 189. Then, you are left with 3x=189 so you divide both sides by 3, 3x divided by 3 cancels out, so you do 189 divided by 3 which is 63.
Answer to equation: x=63
Equation: 3x+3=192
