Question

How many solutions exist for the given equation?
3(x - 2) = 22 -x

Answer 1

One solution

Explanation:

The equation can be rewrite as 3x - 6 = 22 - x

so we try to get all the x on one side so we add x and 6 to both sides so we get 4x = 28 then we divide by 4 both side and get x=7

Answer 2

There is only one solution because it is a linear equation.
3x - 6 = 22 - x
3x + x = 22 + 6
4x = 28
X = 7
