Answer:
Write the written problem into an equation to get:
3x +2 = 5x -4
To solve:
Add 4 to each side:
3x+6 = 5x
Subtract 3x from each side:
2x = 6
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 6/2
x = 3

Answer: x=21
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for x you must first combine you like terms on each side of the equal sign. So you problem will become 8x+1=22+7x. Then get your x on one side and your numbers on the other by taking the one away from the right side and 1 away from 22. Then take away 7 from the left side to cancel it out. Then take 7x away from 8x to leave you with x. making your answer x=21
The answer is 26 hope that helped
