7x + 12 = 5x + 2 Subtract '12' from both sides Hence 7x = 5x -10 Subtract '5x' from both sides. 2x = -10 Divide both sides by '2' Hence x = -5 .
The 7x and the 5x are like terms. This means that you can add them up. Think about it, 7 x's plus 5x's equals 12x's. From there, you can divide 12 from both sides of the equation, and you will get that x = 2.
5x-3 = 11+12x 5x-12x = 11+3 -7x = 14 x = -2
5x+2x-3y+y = (5+2)x+(-3+1)y = 7x - 2y
Separate and simplify the common terms. 5x^2 - X^2 = 4x^2 -7x - 2x = -9x Now put these terms back together 4x^2 - 9x Or if simplified further, you get: x(4x-9)
