Question

5x=2x+18 solve with work

Answer 1

X = 6

Explanation:

1. First, we need to move all the terms containing X to the left side of the equation. We need to subtract 2x from both sides of the equation.

`5x=2x+18`

`5x-2x = 2x-2x + 18`

`3x=18`

2. To get x by itself, we need to divide by 3.

`3x=18`

`(3x)/(3) = (18)/(3)`

X = 6
