Question

3=x+3–5x
what’s the answer

Answer 1

x=0

Explanation:

3=x+3-5x add like terms

3= -4x+3

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

0=-4x divide on both sides -4/-4 and 0/-4

x would equal 0

Answer 2

x =0

Explanation:

3=x+3–5x

Combine like terms

3 = 3-4x

Subtract 3 from each side

3-3 = 3-3-4x

0 =-4x

Divide each side by -4

0/-4 = -4x/-4

0 =x
