โˆ‘ Hey, microhiezv โŠƒ

Answer:

x = 22

Explanation:

Given info:


-3x + 25 + x + 21 = 2

~Solution~:


-3x + 25 + x + 21 = 2


-3x+x+25+21=2 - Grouping like terms


-2x+25+21=2 - Add -3x + x = -2x


-2x+46=2 - Add the numbers


-2x+46-46=2-46 - Subtract 46 from both sides


-2x=-44 - Simplify


(-2x)/(-2)=(-44)/(-2) - Divide -2 from both sides


x = 22 - Answer~
