Question

Solve the following-5x + 3 = 2x - 1

Answer 1

Answer:

4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by moving like terms to one side. Remember that when you change the side of a term, the sign flips.

-5x-2x=-3-1

-7x=-4

Divide both sides by -7

x=4/7

Answer 2

I think the answer is........

-5x+3=2x-1

-5x-2x=-1-3

-7x= -4

-7x/-7=-4/-7

x=4/7
