Multi step equation help pls very quick


X - 7 = -2x - 5

Answer 1

x =
`(2)/(3)`

Explanation:

x - 7 = - 2x - 5 ( add 2x to both sides )

3x - 7 = - 5 ( add 7 to both sides )

3x = 2 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x =
`(2)/(3)`

Answer 2

• x=1.5

Explanation:

`x-7=-2x-5\\\\x+2x=7-5\\\\3x=2\\\\x=(2)/(3)\\\\\tt{x=1.5}`
