Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Solve both sides by distributing the values.

3x+9-2x+2 = 5x-25

Step 2: Put the like terms together.

3x-2x-5x = -25-9-2

-4x = -36

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4 to get the value of x.

\frac{-4x}{-4} = \frac{-36}{-4}

x = 9

Let's verify the answer.

3x+9-2x+2 = 5x-25

3(9)+9-2(9)+2 = 5(9)-25

27+9-18+2=45-25

20 = 20

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute:

3x+9-2x+2=5x-25

Combine like terms:

x+11=5x-25

Solve:

x-x+11=5x-x-25

11=4x-25

11+25=4x-25+25

36=4x

Divide by 9:

x=9.

Hope this helps :D
