7x - x = (7-1)x = 6x
Thank you,

Answer: x=34
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You subtract 2x from 5x on the other side to get rid of the 2x leaving you with 3x.
2. Then you add 5 to 97 to get rid of the -5, giving you 102 on the opposite side.
3. divide 102 by 3x giving you 34.
5x-5=2x+97
-2x -2x
3x-5=97 <u><em>X=102</em></u>
+5 +5
3x=102
x/3 102/3
Answer:
3x + 16 = 22.75
3 = 22.75 - 16
<u>3</u><u>×</u><u> </u>= <u>6</u><u>.</u>75
3 3
x= 2.25
