Question

3x + 5 equals 19 - 4x what does x equals to

Answer 1

x = 2

Explanation:

3x + 5 = 19 - 4x subtract 5 from both sides

3x = 14 - 4x add 4x to both sides

7x = 14 divide both sides by 7

x = 2

Answer 2

x=2

Explanation:

3x + 5 = 19 - 4x

Add 4x to each side

3x + 5 +4x= 19 - 4x+4x

7x+5 = 19

Subtract 5 from each side

7x+5-5 =19-5

7x =14

Divide each side by 7

7x/7 = 14/7

x = 2
