2(5) + 3(5) = 10 + 15 = 25
also 2x+3x=5x and 5(5)=25â–
3x+5 = 2x+13 3x-2x = 13-5 x = 8
-3x + (-18) = 2x + 7 +18 +18 -3x = 2x +25 -2x -2x -5x = 25 ----- ----- -5 -5 x=-5 *------- equals a division line
2x+3 = 3x+5 2x-3x = 5-3 -x = 2 x = -2
2x+5=3x+1 -x=-4 x=4
2x + 2 = 3x - 57 = x
2x-5=3x+6 -5-6=3x-2x -11=x x=-11
2x+12-3x = 5 2x-3x = 5-12 -x = -7 x = 7
3x+7=2x-5 x=-12
2x+12-3x = 5 2x-3x = 5-12 x = -7
3x-5+2x=-49 is the same as 5x=-44 or x=-44/5
x = 2
-3x+7=2x-18 ---> 7+18=2x-3x ----> 25=5x ----> x=5
