Solve for x in the equation below.

Mathematics
1 answer:
nadya68 [22]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<u>x = -6</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3 − 2x = 15

3 − 2x = 15

−2x + 3 = 15

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

−2x + 3 − 3 = 15 − 3

−2x = 12

Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x/-2 = 12/-2

<u>x = −6</u>

Hope this helps!

Please solve, thank you (and show steps):<br><br>Solve for x:<br><br>5x + 22 = 27​
IrinaVladis [17]
Given the equation, 5x + 22 = 27:

The goal is to isolate the variable. Hence, a few mathematical operations are necessary to solve for the value of x.

Start by subtracting 22 both sides:
5x + 22 - 22 = 27 - 22
5x + 0 = 5
5x = 5


Next, divide both sides by 5 to isolate and solve for the value of x:

5x/5 = 5/5

x = 1

In order to verify whether x = 1 satisfies the give equation, we must substitute its value into the given equation:

5x + 22 = 27

5(1) + 22 = 27
5 + 22 = 27
27 = 27 (True statement. This implies that x = 1 is the correct value that satisfies the equation).

Therefore, the correct answer is x = 1.
