Answer:
<h2><u>
x = 1</u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
<em>2x + 10 = 9 + 3x
</em>
Reorder the terms:
<em>10 + 2x = 9 + 3x
</em>
Solving
<em>10 + 2x = 9 + 3x</em>
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.
<em>10 + 2x + -3x = 9 + 3x + -3x
</em>
Combine like terms: 2x + -3x = -1x
<em>10 + -1x = 9 + 3x + -3x
</em>
Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0
<em>10 + -1x = 9 + 0
</em>
<em>10 + -1x = 9</em>
Add '-10' to each side of the equation.
<em>10 + -10 + -1x = 9 + -10</em>
Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
0 + -1x = 9 + -10
-1x = 9 + -10
Combine like terms: 9 + -10 = -1
-1x = -1
Divide each side by '-1'.
x = 1
Simplifying
x = 1
