Question

3x - x + 3 + x - 5 - x = x + 10

Answer 1

x= 12

Explanation:

Cancel xx on both sides.

3x-x+3-5-x=103x−x+3−5−x=10

3x-x+3-5-x3x−x+3−5−x to x-2x−2.

x-2=10x−2=10

3 Add 22 to both sides.

x=10+2x=10+2

10+210+2 to 1212.

x=12x=12

Answer 2

x=12

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3x−x+3+x−5−x=x+10

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x−x+3+x−5−x=x+10

3x+−x+3+x+−5+−x=x+10

(3x+−x+x+−x)+(3+−5)=x+10(Combine Like Terms)

2x+−2=x+10

2x−2=x+10

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

2x−2−x=x+10−x

x−2=10

Step 3: Add 2 to both sides.

x−2+2=10+2

x=12
