Question

2x + 3 + 4x + 8 = 3x - 10

Answer 1

$\text {Hello! Let's solve this Equation!}$

$\text {Your First Step is to Simplify the Equation:}$

$\text {(2x+4x)+(8+3)}$

$\text {6x+11=3x-10}$

$\text {The Next Step is to Subtract 3x:}$

$\text {6x+11-3x=3x-10-3x}\\\text {3x+11=-10}$

$\text {Next Step is to Subtract 11:}$

$\text {Q: Why Subtract 11?}$

$\text {A: So they cancel out. We cross them out once we subtract.}$

$\text {3x+11-11=-10-11}\\\text {3x=-21}$

$\text {The Final Step is to Divide 3:}$

$\text {3x/3=-21/3}$

$\text {Your Answer will be}$

$\fbox {x=-7}$

$\text {Best of Luck!}$

$\text {-LimitedX}$
