2x + 3 = x
Subtract 3 from both sides so that...
2x = x - 3
Subtract x from both sides so that...
2x - x = -3
Now you have to simplify the left side so that it equals...
x(2-1) = -3
Now divide both sides by (2-1), the equation should now look like...
x = -3/(2-1)
x = -3/1
x = -3
Now obviously, you could have made (2-1) into 1 and left it as 1x = -3 so x = -3, but if the inside of that equation equaled something such as... (21-13) or something, you need to know you take the entire ( ) over to the other side. Also, don't forget to check your answer
2(-3) + 3 = (-3)
solved, it equals...
-3 = -3 so it is correct.
x = 7
2x + 3y = 1 y = 1/3 - 2x/3
X=1.42857142857143
it equals 13X.
how do you use the substitution method for this problem 2x-3y=-2 4x+y=24
The equation F X 2X plus 5 equals 0.5. This is a algebra math problem.
2x-3 = 11 2x = 11+3 2x = 14 x = 7
x=1
2x+52=0 =>2x= -52 =>x= -52/2 =>x= -26
What is the answer to 2x - 5x plus 6.3 equals -14.4?
4+2x-2x+1=13+6 Combine like terms. (4+1=5; 2x-2x=0; 13+6=19) 5=19 This problem has no solution.
-2x plus 3y equals 1
