Question

Solve the equation for x 5(x-3)+2x=4(x+3)

Answer 1

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 15 + 2x = 4x + 12

7x - 4x = 12 + 15

3x = 27

x = 9

Answer 2

Answer:

$5\left(x-3\right)+2x=4\left(x+3\right)$

$5\left(x-3\right)+2x$

$=5x-15+2x$

$5x-15+2x$

$5x+2x-15=7x-15$

$4\left(x+3\right)=4x+12$

$7x-15=4x+12$

$7x-15+15=4x+12+15$

$7x=4x+27$

$7x-4x=4x+27-4x$

$3x=27$

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{27}{3}$

$x=9$
