Question

3x=x+56 Please help me!!

Answer 1

x is equal to 28 (x = 28)

Explanation:

First you move the x on the right to the left side by using the opposite sign, so we subtract it. Now we have 2x=56. Now we divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself. 2x divided by 2 is x and 56 divided by 2 is 28, so now we are left with x=28.

Answer 2

1.
`3x=x+56`

2.
`3x-x=x+56-x` (subtract x from both sides)

3.
`2x/2=56/2` (divide both sides by 2)

4.
`x=28`.

Hope this helps.
