Solve 3x + 5 ⩾ x + 17

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ugo [173]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3x + 5 = x + 17

Reorder the terms:

5 + 3x = x + 17

Reorder the terms:

5 + 3x = 17 + x

Solving

5 + 3x = 17 + x

Solving for variable 'x'.

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

Add '-1x' to each side of the equation.

5 + 3x + -1x = 17 + x + -1x

Combine like terms: 3x + -1x = 2x

5 + 2x = 17 + x + -1x

Combine like terms: x + -1x = 0

5 + 2x = 17 + 0

5 + 2x = 17

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.

5 + -5 + 2x = 17 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0

0 + 2x = 17 + -5

2x = 17 + -5

Combine like terms: 17 + -5 = 12

2x = 12

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 6

Simplifying

x = 6
