Question

13x+7=3+23x
please i really need the answer

Answer 1

x = ⅖

Explanation:

13x+7=3+23x

4 = 10x

x = 4/10

x = ⅖(simplest form)

Answer 2

`x = (2)/(5)`

Explanation:

13x + 7 = 3 + 23x

Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation:

13x + 7 - 7 = 3 + 23x - 7

13x = 23x - 4

Next, subtract 23x from both sides of the equation:

13x -23x = 23x - 4 - 23x

13x - 23x = - 4

Combine like terms:

-10x = -4

Divide both sides of the equation by -10 and solve for x:

`(-10x)/(-10) = (-4)/(-10) = (2)/(5)`

Therefore,
`x = (2)/(5)`
