Question

If 5x + 32 =4-2x, what is the value of x ?

Answer 1

5x + 32 = 4- 2x 
Add 2x to both sides to get 7x + 32 = 4
Subtract 32 from both sides to get 7x = -28
Divide both sides by 7 to get x = -4
Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Hi there!

To solve this problem, we need to simplify.

5x + 32 = 4 - 2x
7x + 32 = 4
7x = -28

x = -4

Hope this helps!
