Hi! I'm Jenny and I'm a mathematician! I'd love to help you with this problem! :)

Lets get started...

I'll write the equation out for you!

x + x(xx)

Put the value of x = 2 in the above expression we get,

2 + 2(22)

3x+15-7x=-7 solve for x
xenn [34]

3x+15−7x=−7

Simplify:

3x+15−7x=−7

3x+15+−7x=−7

(3x+−7x)+(15)=−7(Combine Like Terms)

−4x+15=−7

Subtract 15 from both sides.

−4x+15−15=−7−15

−4x=−22

Divide both sides by -4.

−4x/−4=−22/−4

x=11/2
