Answer: x=3

Step-by-step explanation: 19-3x=2x+4

We move all terms to the left:

19-3x-(2x + 4)=0

We get rid of parentheses

-3x-2x-4+19=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-5x+15=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-5x=-15

x=-15/-5

x=3
