Question

-2x + 4 = 5 + 3x solve for x

Answer 1

- 1/5

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2x+4=3x+5

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

−2x+4−3x=3x+5−3x

−5x+4=5

Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.

−5x+4−4=5−4

−5x=1

Step 4: Divide both sides by -5.

-5/-5 =1/-5

answer is 1/5
